11/// A contiguous growable collection of [`Column`]s that have the same length.
12///
13/// ## Use declarations
14///
15/// All the common tools can be found in [`crate::prelude`] (or in `polars::prelude`).
16///
17/// ```rust
18/// use polars_core::prelude::*; // if the crate polars-core is used directly
19/// // use polars::prelude::*; if the crate polars is used
20/// ```
21///
22/// # Initialization
23/// ## Default
24///
25/// A `DataFrame` can be initialized empty:
26///
27/// ```rust
28/// # use polars_core::prelude::*;
29/// let df = DataFrame::empty();
30/// assert_eq!(df.shape(), (0, 0));
31/// ```
32///
33/// ## Constructing from a `Vec<Column>`
34///
35/// A `DataFrame` is backed by a `Vec<Column>` where the `Column`s have the same length.
36/// ```rust
37/// # use polars_core::prelude::*;
38/// let s1 = Column::new("Fruit".into(), ["Apple", "Apple", "Pear"]);
39/// let s2 = Column::new("Color".into(), ["Red", "Yellow", "Green"]);
40///
41/// let df: PolarsResult<DataFrame> = DataFrame::new_infer_height(vec![s1, s2]);
42/// ```
43///
44/// ## Using a macro
45///
46/// The [`df!`] macro is a convenient method:
47///
48/// ```rust
49/// # use polars_core::prelude::*;
50/// let df: PolarsResult<DataFrame> = df!("Fruit" => ["Apple", "Apple", "Pear"],
51/// "Color" => ["Red", "Yellow", "Green"]);
52/// ```
53///
54/// ## Using a CSV file
55///
56/// See the `polars_io::csv::CsvReader`.
57///
58/// # Indexing
59/// ## By a number
60///
61/// The `Index<usize>` is implemented for the `DataFrame`.
62///
63/// ```rust
64/// # use polars_core::prelude::*;
65/// let df = df!("Fruit" => ["Apple", "Apple", "Pear"],
66/// "Color" => ["Red", "Yellow", "Green"])?;
67///
68/// assert_eq!(df[0], Column::new("Fruit".into(), &["Apple", "Apple", "Pear"]));
69/// assert_eq!(df[1], Column::new("Color".into(), &["Red", "Yellow", "Green"]));
70/// # Ok::<(), PolarsError>(())
71/// ```
72///
73/// ## By a `Series` name
74///
75/// ```rust
76/// # use polars_core::prelude::*;
77/// let df = df!("Fruit" => ["Apple", "Apple", "Pear"],
78/// "Color" => ["Red", "Yellow", "Green"])?;
79///
80/// assert_eq!(df["Fruit"], Column::new("Fruit".into(), &["Apple", "Apple", "Pear"]));
81/// assert_eq!(df["Color"], Column::new("Color".into(), &["Red", "Yellow", "Green"]));
82/// # Ok::<(), PolarsError>(())
83/// ```
