Answer 1

I think you should be able to do this just be replacing the None values with nan (this is not entirely right, because in R NA and NaN are different, but there is no way to express two different non-values for a float in F#):

let optData4 = 
    [ 10.0; 9.0; 8.0; nan; 6.0; 5.0; 5.0; nan; 4.0; 2.0; nan ]

let testData4 = 
    namedParams [
        "regPrice", optData4;]
    |> R.data_frame

I have not tested this, but I think this is what we do in Deedle internally.
