-            Method to use for filling holes in reindexed Series
-            pad / ffill: propagate last valid observation forward to next valid
-            backfill / bfill: use NEXT valid observation to fill gap
         value : scalar, dict, Series, or DataFrame
             Value to use to fill holes (e.g. 0), alternately a dict/Series/DataFrame of
             values specifying which value to use for each index (for a Series) or
             column (for a DataFrame). (values not in the dict/Series/DataFrame will not be
             filled). This value cannot be a list.
