Hi,

I think your X parameter contains null value, that's why you got this error. You can avoid this error by feature engineering concept. In this you can avoid NAN in two ways. One way is to remove the null value and another way is replacing missing values with suitable value(Imputation concept)

To remove NAN values, you can use dropna(). But it will remove the total row or column. So you can create your own customize function that is called Imputation.

Hope this will help you.
