Nan values in columns when creating a dataframe

Question:

I try to create a dataframe with columns. I import values of these columns from other dataframe that are not empty. But when i create it,, i get an empty dataframe with Nan VAlues .

Here the code :

# initialize data of lists.
comparaison = {'actual': imp_all['prix_moyen'].tail(100),
        'predicted': best_model.fittedvalues.tail(100)}

print(comparaison)
  
# Creates pandas DataFrame.
df = pd.DataFrame(comparaison, index = pd.date_range(start='2022-08-25', periods=100))

print(df)

Result :

{'actual': 1149    0.001313
1150    0.001381
1151    0.001297
1152    0.001412
1153    0.001480
          ...   
1244    0.001474
1245    0.001467
1246    0.001492
1247    0.001530

[100 rows x 2 columns]

Can you help me to fix this error?

thanks

Answers:

The reason is that you try to assign an index to the series actual and predicted which apparently don’t have datetime index. Try to alter the index after defining the new dataframe:

df = pd.DataFrame(comparaison)
df.index = pd.date_range(start='2022-08-25', periods=100)
