title: Creating a zero-filled pandas data frame
body: <p>What is the best way to create a zero-filled pandas data frame of a given size?</p>
  
  <p>I have used: </p>
  
  <pre><code>zero_data = np.zeros(shape=(len(data),len(feature_list)))
  d = pd.DataFrame(zero_data, columns=feature_list)
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Is there a better way to do it?</p>
