BUG: pandas.DataFrame().stack() raise an error, while expected is empty (original) (raw)

• 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.

Code Sample, a copy-pastable example

pandas.DataFrame().stack() pandas.DataFrame().stack(dropna = True)

Problem description

I expect that stack() of empty dataframe will be empty dataframe and not an exception
