Description

I am curious if the following is the intended behavior:

x = pd.Series([None] * 10) y = [False] * 3 + [True] * 5 + [False] * 2 x[y] = range(5) x

0 None

1 None

2 None

3 3

4 4

5 0

6 1

7 2

8 None

9 None

The expectation was that it would work as with x.loc[y] = range(5):

0 None

1 None

2 None

3 0

4 1

5 2

6 3

7 4

8 None

9 None

If so, where can one read about the logic behind?
