I'm using the survey api. I am taking 1000 samples of size of 100 and 
replacing 20 of those values with missing values. Im trying to use 
sequential hot deck imputation, and thus I am trying to figure out how 
to replace missing values with the value before it. Other things I have 
to keep in mind is if there are two missing values side by side, how do I
 replace both those values with the value before. Also if the first of 
the sample of 100 is a missing value  I will replace that with the mean 
of the population. Im pretty sure I have to write a loop, but if anyone 
can help me figuring how to write this I would appreciate it greatly. 
Thank you
