Answer a question

This is my dataframe:

          date                          ids
0     2011-04-23  [0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13,...
1     2011-04-24  [0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13,...
2     2011-04-25  [0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13,...
3     2011-04-26  Nan
4     2011-04-27  [0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13,...
5     2011-04-28  [0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13,...

I want to replace Nan with []. How to do that? Fillna([]) did not work. I even tried replace(np.nan, []) but it gives error:

 TypeError('Invalid "to_replace" type: \'float\'',)

Answers

You can first use loc to locate all rows that have a nan in the ids column, and then loop through these rows using at to set their values to an empty list:

for row in df.loc[df.ids.isnull(), 'ids'].index:
    df.at[row, 'ids'] = []

>>> df
        date                                             ids
0 2011-04-23  [0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13]
1 2011-04-24  [0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13]
2 2011-04-25  [0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13]
3 2011-04-26                                              []
4 2011-04-27  [0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13]
5 2011-04-28  [0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13]
