Dear all,
i have spent a lot of time trying to solve this problem, but I am sure that 
there must be a simple solution. So, as a last resort, I am coming back to you 
again. I have a dataset with some (almost random) values in many variables. 
Lets 
say that the dataset represents the scores of students to test questions. What 
I 
need to do is to sum the scores for each student. However, wherever there is a 
missing (NA) value, I cannot get the total score.  How can I compute the total 
score and the average per question (a) by ignoring the missing responses, (b) 
by 
assuming that a missing response is a zero?
Thank you for the response
