Replace specific values in Julia Dataframe column with random value

Question

I'm looking for a way to replace values in Dataframe column with random numbers. They should be different in every row where the substitution was performed.

For example replacing "X" with random numbers drawn from 100:120 range

julia> df = DataFrame(:a=>[1,2,"X","X",5,"X"],)
6×1 DataFrame
│ Row │ a   │
│     │ Any │
├─────┼─────┤
│ 1   │ 1   │
│ 2   │ 2   │
│ 3   │ X   │
│ 4   │ X   │
│ 5   │ 5   │
│ 6   │ X   │

* Replacing X with random values in 100:120 *

julia> df
6×1 DataFrame
│ Row │ a   │
│     │ Any │
├─────┼─────┤
│ 1   │ 1   │
│ 2   │ 2   │
│ 3   │ 103 │
│ 4   │ 110 │
│ 5   │ 5   │
│ 6   │ 116 │

I've tried using replace but rand is evaluated before replace:

julia> replace!(df.a,"X"=> rand(100:120))
julia> df
6×1 DataFrame
│ Row │ a   │
│     │ Any │
├─────┼─────┤
│ 1   │ 1   │
│ 2   │ 2   │
│ 3   │ 115 │
│ 4   │ 115 │
│ 5   │ 5   │
│ 6   │ 115 │

Answer 1

A one liner could be:

replace!( x-> x=="X" ? rand() : x, df.a)
