 axis : {{0 or 'index', 1 or 'columns', None}}, default None
            Axis to interpolate along. For `Series` this parameter is unused
            and defaults to 0.
        limit : int, optional
            Maximum number of consecutive NaNs to fill. Must be greater than
            0.
        inplace : bool, default False
            Update the data in place if possible.
        limit_direction : {{'forward', 'backward', 'both'}}, Optional
            Consecutive NaNs will be filled in this direction.

            If limit is specified:
                * If 'method' is 'pad' or 'ffill', 'limit_direction' must be 'forward'.
                * If 'method' is 'backfill' or 'bfill', 'limit_direction' must be
                  'backwards'.

            If 'limit' is not specified:
                * If 'method' is 'backfill' or 'bfill', the default is 'backward'
                * else the default is 'forward'

            raises ValueError if `limit_direction` is 'forward' or 'both' and
                method is 'backfill' or 'bfill'.
            raises ValueError if `limit_direction` is 'backward' or 'both' and
                method is 'pad' or 'ffill'.

        limit_area : {{`None`, 'inside', 'outside'}}, default None
            If limit is specified, consecutive NaNs will be filled with this
            restriction.

            * ``None``: No fill restriction.
            * 'inside': Only fill NaNs surrounded by valid values
              (interpolate).
            * 'outside': Only fill NaNs outside valid values (extrapolate).

        downcast : optional, 'infer' or None, defaults to None
            Downcast dtypes if possible.

            .. deprecated:: 2.1.0

        ``**kwargs`` : optional
            Keyword arguments to pass on to the interpolating function.

        Returns
        -------
        Series or DataFrame or None
            Returns the same object type as the caller, interpolated at
            some or all ``NaN`` values or None if ``inplace=True``.

        Examples
        --------
        Filling in ``NaN`` in a :class:`~pandas.Series` via linear
        interpolation.

        >>> s = pd.Series([0, 1, np.nan, 3])
        >>> s
        0    0.0
        1    1.0
        2    NaN
        3    3.0
        dtype: float64
        >>> s.interpolate()
        0    0.0
        1    1.0
        2    2.0
        3    3.0
        dtype: float64

        Filling in ``NaN`` in a Series via polynomial interpolation or splines:
        Both 'polynomial' and 'spline' methods require that you also specify
        an ``order`` (int).

        >>> s = pd.Series([0, 2, np.nan, 8])
        >>> s.interpolate(method='polynomial', order=2)
        0    0.000000
        1    2.000000
        2    4.666667
        3    8.000000
        dtype: float64

        Fill the DataFrame forward (that is, going down) along each column
        using linear interpolation.

        Note how the last entry in column 'a' is interpolated differently,
        because there is no entry after it to use for interpolation.
        Note how the first entry in column 'b' remains ``NaN``, because there
        is no entry before it to use for interpolation.

        >>> df = pd.DataFrame([(0.0, np.nan, -1.0, 1.0),
        ...                    (np.nan, 2.0, np.nan, np.nan),
        ...                    (2.0, 3.0, np.nan, 9.0),
        ...                    (np.nan, 4.0, -4.0, 16.0)],
        ...                   columns=list('abcd'))
        >>> df
             a    b    c     d
        0  0.0  NaN -1.0   1.0
        1  NaN  2.0  NaN   NaN
        2  2.0  3.0  NaN   9.0
        3  NaN  4.0 -4.0  16.0
        >>> df.interpolate(method='linear', limit_direction='forward', axis=0)
             a    b    c     d
        0  0.0  NaN -1.0   1.0

        Using polynomial interpolation.
