Missing data? NumPy calls it nan. Python Pandas displays it as NaN.
But: Pandas doesn’t define pd.nan or pd.NaN. NumPy removed np.NaN in version 2.0.

Link: https://lernerpython.com/2026/09/22/pandas-nullable-integers-keeping-ints-with-int64-and-pd-na/
You have a Python Pandas series with ints + NaN. You don’t want float forced on you.
Solution: Use the “extension” type Int64 (note Initial Caps) and pd.NA:
s = Series([10, pd.NA, 30], dtype='Int64')
