Appending a list or series to a pandas DataFrame as a row?
Here's a simple and dumb solution:
>>> import pandas as pd
>>> df = pd.DataFrame()
>>> df = df.append({'foo':1, 'bar':2}, ignore_index=True)
df = pd.DataFrame(columns=list("ABC"))
df.loc[len(df)] = [1,2,3]
Sometimes it's easier to do all the appending outside of pandas, then, just create the DataFrame in one shot.
>>> import pandas as pd
>>> simple_list=[['a','b']]
>>> simple_list.append(['e','f'])
>>> df=pd.DataFrame(simple_list,columns=['col1','col2'])
col1 col2
0 a b
1 e f
