Python: padding zeros and zeros
Suppose I have a dataframe, df1, which has zeros and nans:
dates = pd.date_range('20170101',periods=20)
df1 = pd.DataFrame(np.random.randint(10,size=(20,3)),index=dates,columns=['foo','bar','see'])
df1.iloc[3:12,0] = np.nan
df1.iloc[6:17,1] = 0
What is the laconic way to fill in both zee and nans for shipment? I tried the following:
df1 = (df1.fillna(method='ffill', inplace=True)).replace(to_replace=0, method='ffill')
AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'replace'

Use replace
to replace zeros nan
, then ffill
:
df1.replace(0,pd.np.nan).ffill()
Output:
foo bar see
