Drop all data in a pandas dataframe

I would like to drop all data in a pandas dataframe, but am getting TypeError: drop() takes at least 2 arguments (3 given). I essentially want a blank dataframe with just my columns headers. import pandas as pd web_stats = {'Day': [1, 2, 3, 4, 2, 6], 'Visitors': [43, 43, 34, 23, 43, 23], 'Bounce_Rate': [3, 2, 4, 3, 5, 5]} df = pd.DataFrame(web_stats) df.drop(axis=0, inplace=True) print df
You need to pass the labels to be dropped. df.drop(df.index, inplace=True) By default, it operates on axis=0. You can achieve the same with df.iloc[:0] which is much more efficient.
