Creating a zero-filled pandas data frame

Question

What is the best way to create a zero-filled pandas data frame of a given size?

I have used:

zero_data = np.zeros(shape=(len(data),len(feature_list)         


        

Answer 1

If you would like the new data frame to have the same index and columns as an existing data frame, you can just multiply the existing data frame by zero:

df_zeros = df * 0
