pandas.DataFrame.divide   DataFrame.divide(other, axis='columns', level=None, fill_value=None)[source]
 
Get Floating division of dataframe and other, element-wise (binary operator truediv). Equivalent to dataframe / other, but with support to substitute a fill_value for missing data in one of the inputs. With reverse version, rtruediv. Among flexible wrappers (add, sub, mul, div, mod, pow) to arithmetic operators: +, -, *, /, //, %, **.  Parameters 
 
other:scalar, sequence, Series, or DataFrame


Any single or multiple element data structure, or list-like object.  
axis:{0 or ‘index’, 1 or ‘columns’}


Whether to compare by the index (0 or ‘index’) or columns (1 or ‘columns’). For Series input, axis to match Series index on.  
level:int or label


Broadcast across a level, matching Index values on the passed MultiIndex level.  
fill_value:float or None, default None


Fill existing missing (NaN) values, and any new element needed for successful DataFrame alignment, with this value before computation. If data in both corresponding DataFrame locations is missing the result will be missing.    Returns 
 DataFrame

Result of the arithmetic operation.      See also  DataFrame.add

Add DataFrames.  DataFrame.sub

Subtract DataFrames.  DataFrame.mul

Multiply DataFrames.  DataFrame.div

Divide DataFrames (float division).  DataFrame.truediv

Divide DataFrames (float division).  DataFrame.floordiv

Divide DataFrames (integer division).  DataFrame.mod

Calculate modulo (remainder after division).  DataFrame.pow

Calculate exponential power.    Notes Mismatched indices will be unioned together. Examples
