Adding new row on TimeDataFrame silently does nothing for integers.

[dalejung]

df = pd.util.testing.makeTimeDataFrame()
df.ix[100,:] = df.ix[0] # does nothing
df.ix[100.0, :] = df.ix[0] # adds a new row

Not sure why someone would do such lunacy, but figured I'd report it :P

[jtratner]

I believe it's because the second is interpreted as a label instead of a location:

df.ix['a', :] = 5

[jreback]

@dalejung ix very odd fallback behavior; much better off using iloc/loc.

and @jtratner is right

[dalejung]

@jreback I was more surprised that adding a non datetime didn't error. I wasn't aware of setting with enlargement till just 15 minutes ago.

fyi.

df.loc[100,:] = df.iloc[0]

also does nothing. Is that supposed to add a row?

[jreback]

I guess I should only allow enlarge when it is a compatible type...
technically this is allowed (but dumb)

kind of like reindexing, ti will work, but not useful
