Any plans on support LOCF for missing records? RIght now NULL values are injected. Would be fantastic to support last observation carried forward as well.

Can you give an explanation of the output you need? I think what you're describing is already implemented, but you may need certain usage to get there… You're asking to inject missing data with LOCF, which I think we can already do…

@neeleshs any update? I'm not sure what you mean by supporting LOCF for "missing records"… generally you need one present record to perform LOCF. Without more information I don't know what I can provide in this issue.

I'm sorry for the delay on commenting. I must have missed something in the documentation. Yes, I meant carrying forward the last record (if one is present). I assumed wrongly the current feature only can fill in nulls if a record is missing for the time period under consideration. Is that not right?

I will post a concrete example in sometime
