Otherwise by identity nan/nan should equal 1, along with all the other consequences like (nan/nan)==1, (nan*1)==nan, etc. Nan not being equal to nan is part of the definition of nan, so that part's easy Float('nan') represents nan (not a number)

But how do i check for it?
182 i just came across this technique in the book effective javascript that is pretty simple
Since nan is the only javascript value that is treated as unequal to itself, you can always test if a value is nan by checking it for equality to itself: I would like to know why some languages like r has both na and nan What are the differences or are they equally the same Is it really needed to have na?
37 it's a special case, nan is the only thing in javascript not equal to itself Although the other answers about strings vs the nan object are right too. >>> df.iloc[1,0] nan so, why is the second option not working Is it possible to check for nan values using iloc
This question previously used pd.np instead of np and.ix in addition to.iloc, but since these no longer exist, they have been edited out to keep it short and clear.
Nan stands for not a number, and this is not equal to 0 Although positive and negative infinity can be said to be symmetric about 0, the same can be said for any value n, meaning that the result of adding the two yields nan This idea is discussed in this math.se question. Nan can be used as a numerical value on mathematical operations, while none cannot (or at least shouldn't)
None is an internal python type (nonetype) and would be more like inexistent or empty than numerically invalid in this context The main symptom of that is that, if you perform, say, an average or a sum on an.
