how to create a blank dataframe in pandas code example

Example 1: empty dataframe

newDF = pd.DataFrame() #creates a new dataframe that's empty
newDF = newDF.append(oldDF, ignore_index = True) # ignoring index is optional
# try printing some data from newDF
print newDF.head() #again optional

Example 2: python initialise dataframe

import pandas as pd

data = [[0, 0, 0] , [1, 1, 1]]
columns = ['A', 'B', 'C']
df = pd.DataFrame(data, columns=columns)
