ParametersReturns
difference(self, other, sort=None)

This is the set difference of two Index objects.

Parameters

other : Index or array-like
sort : False or None, default None

Whether to sort the resulting index. By default, the values are attempted to be sorted, but any TypeError from incomparable elements is caught by pandas.

Returns

difference : Index

Return a new Index with elements of index not in other .

Examples

This example is valid syntax, but we were not able to check execution
>>> idx1 = pd.Index([2, 1, 3, 4])
... idx2 = pd.Index([3, 4, 5, 6])
... idx1.difference(idx2) Int64Index([1, 2], dtype='int64')
This example is valid syntax, but we were not able to check execution
>>> idx1.difference(idx2, sort=False)
Int64Index([2, 1], dtype='int64')

Local connectivity graph

Hover to see nodes names; edges to Self not shown, Caped at 50 nodes.

Using a canvas is more power efficient and can get hundred of nodes ; but does not allow hyperlinks; , arrows or text (beyond on hover)

SVG is more flexible but power hungry; and does not scale well to 50 + nodes.

All aboves nodes referred to, (or are referred from) current nodes; Edges from Self to other have been omitted (or all nodes would be connected to the central node "self" which is not useful). Nodes are colored by the library they belong to, and scaled with the number of references pointing them
