how to make 1 by n dataframe from series in pandas?
You can do df.ix[[n]] to get a one-row dataframe of row n.
I have a huge dataframe, and I index it like so:
df.ix[<integer>]
Depending on the index, sometimes this will have only one row of values.  Pandas automatically converts this to a Series, which, quite frankly, is annoying because I can't operate on it the same way I can a df.  
How do I either:
1)  Stop pandas from converting and keep it as a dataframe ?
OR
2)  easily convert the resulting series back to a dataframe ?
pd.DataFrame(df.ix[<integer>]) does not work because it doesn't keep the original columns.  It treats the <integer> as the column, and the columns as indices.  Much appreciated.
