Closed

Description

@hjweide
  • I have checked that this issue has not already been reported.

  • I have confirmed this bug exists on the latest version of pandas.

  • (optional) I have confirmed this bug exists on the master branch of pandas.


Note: Please read this guide detailing how to provide the necessary information for us to reproduce your bug.

Code Sample, a copy-pastable example

import pandas as pd

df = pd.DataFrame({"A": [1, 2, 3]})

a = df["A"]
a += 999

print(df)
print(df["A"])

assert a is df["A"]

Problem description

I expect print(df) and print(df["A"]) to show identical values for column A. This is not the case. The output of the code above:

   A
0  1
1  2
2  3
0    1000
1    1001
2    1002
Name: A, dtype: int64

Expected Output

   A
0  1000
1  1001
2  1002
0    1000
1    1001
2    1002
Name: A, dtype: int64

Output of pd.show_versions()
