Description
Pandas version checks
-
I have checked that this issue has not already been reported.
-
I have confirmed this bug exists on the latest version of pandas.
-
I have confirmed this bug exists on the main branch of pandas.
Reproducible Example
import pandas as pd
df = pd.DataFrame()
condition = [True, False, True, True]
for i in range(len(condition)):
df.at[i,'truth'] = condition[i]Issue Description
While making a column from a loop, I get an incompaitible dtype warning.
FutureWarning: Setting an item of incompatible dtype is deprecated and will raise in a future error of pandas. Value 'True' has dtype incompatible with float64, please explicitly cast to a compatible dtype first.
df.at[i,'truth'] = condition[i]
Pandas most probably complaints about casting to float64 because np.NaN is considered a float and pandas defaults to making a column filled with np.NaN
Expected Behavior
No warning
