Description

I have checked that this issue has not already been reported.
-
I have confirmed this bug exists on the latest version of pandas.
-
I have confirmed this bug exists on the master branch of pandas.
Reproducible Example
print(pd.Series([1], index=pd.Index([False])).loc[False]) # Works i.e. returns 1
print(pd.DataFrame([[1]], index=pd.Index([False])).loc[False]) # Works i.e. returns [1]
print(pd.DataFrame([[1]], columns=pd.Index([False])).loc[:, False]) # Fails
Issue Description
You can select a single row from a DataFrame
by supplying a boolean key to loc
, but not a single column. This seems inconsistent.
Expected Behavior
Return the relevant column
