[python] Appending to an empty DataFrame in Pandas?

Is it possible to append to an empty data frame that doesn't contain any indices or columns?

I have tried to do this, but keep getting an empty dataframe at the end.

e.g.

df = pd.DataFrame()
data = ['some kind of data here' --> I have checked the type already, and it is a dataframe]
df.append(data)

The result looks like this:

Empty DataFrame
Columns: []
Index: []

And if you want to add a row, you can use a dictionary:

df = pd.DataFrame()
df = df.append({'name': 'Zed', 'age': 9, 'height': 2}, ignore_index=True)

which gives you:

   age  height name
0    9       2  Zed

You can concat the data in this way:

InfoDF = pd.DataFrame()
tempDF = pd.DataFrame(rows,columns=['id','min_date'])

InfoDF = pd.concat([InfoDF,tempDF])
