\description{
  These generic functions are useful for dealing with \code{\link{NA}}s
  in e.g., data frames.
  \code{na.fail} returns the data frame if it does not contain any
  missing values, and signals an error otherwise.
  \code{na.omit} returns the data frame with incomplete cases removed.
}
\seealso{
  \code{\link{na.action}}, \code{\link{options}(na.action=..)} for setting ``NA
  actions'', and \code{\link{lm}} and \code{\link{glm}} for functions
  using these.
