How to merge a Series and DataFrame

December 20, 2022 by Tarik

Update
From v0.24.0 onwards, you can merge on DataFrame and Series as long as the Series is named.

df.merge(s.rename('new'), left_index=True, right_index=True)
# If series is already named,
# df.merge(s, left_index=True, right_index=True)

Nowadays, you can simply convert the Series to a DataFrame with to_frame(). So (if joining on index):

df.merge(s.to_frame(), left_index=True, right_index=True)
