Imputer function is now removed and replaced
Yes, it is replaced with SimpleImputer, in the newer version of the scikit learn package. The usage is similar to the Imputer function, except the axis parameter.
Please note that Quantra documentation specifies a particular environment with specific packages. This can be found in the ReadMe.pdf in the downloadables folder. In this said environment, all code has been tested to be working.
The version specification is done so because python packages update frequently. Though only a few updates deprecate some of the functionalities, it takes time for us to test and deploy newer versions of packages on our platform.
Thank you for highlighting this deprecation! In the meantime should you face difficulties in adjusting to newer packages, please configure your local environment as suggested in the course documentation.
