classmethod DataFrame.from_records(data, index=None, exclude=None, columns=None, coerce_float=False, nrows=None)

The documentation is lacking an explanation for the nrows paramater.

Seems like a relatively trivial documentation issue. Should try to add before next release.

@chrism2671 : You are more than welcome to tackle this if you want!

Is this still open? I would love to make this my first pull-request to pandas.

This parameter is now documented in the master branch (for the forthcoming 0.24 release), and this issue can be closed.
