Data analysis in Python with pandas - How do I create a pandas DataFrame from another object?

Have you ever needed to create a DataFrame of "dummy" data, but without reading from a file? In this video, I'll demonstrate how to create a DataFrame from a dictionary, a list, and a NumPy array. I'll also show you how to create a new Series and attach it to the DataFrame.
