Series Notes

This document provides an overview of pandas Series through examples. A Series is a one-dimensional labeled array capable of holding any data type. It behaves like a dict where the labels are the index. Operations on Series include indexing, slicing, arithmetic operations, and accessing via label like a dict. Series can be created from many data types and the index can be specified or will use defaults.
