Creating a Pandas DataFrame

There are multiple ways to create a pandas DataFrame in Python, but one invalid way is not specified.

Purpose of the .loc Method

The .loc method is used to access a group of rows and columns by label(s) or a boolean array.

Pandas Series vs. Pandas DataFrame

A pandas Series is a one-dimensional labeled array of values, similar to a list or a column in a spreadsheet.
A pandas DataFrame is a two-dimensional labeled data structure with columns of potentially different types, similar to a spreadsheet or SQL table.
The main difference between a Series and a DataFrame is the number of dimensions: a Series is one-dimensional, while a DataFrame is two-dimensional.
