keywords) New labels / index to conform to. Preferably an Index object to avoid duplicating data

• pad / ffill: propagate last valid observation forward to next valid
• backfill / bfill: use next valid observation to fill gap
• nearest: use nearest valid observations to fill gap

copy : boolean, default True

Return a new object, even if the passed indexes are the same

level : int or name

Broadcast across a level, matching Index values on the passed MultiIndex level
