Notes

An Index instance can only contain hashable objects

Parameters

data : array-like (1-dimensional)

dtype : NumPy dtype (default: object)

If dtype is None, we find the dtype that best fits the data. If an actual dtype is provided, we coerce to that dtype if it's safe. Otherwise, an error will be raised.

copy : bool

Make a copy of input ndarray.

name : object

Name to be stored in the index.

tupleize_cols : bool (default: True)

When True, attempt to create a MultiIndex if possible.

Immutable sequence used for indexing and alignment. The basic object storing axis labels for all pandas objects.

CategoricalIndex

Index of :None:class:`Categorical` s.

DatetimeIndex

Index of datetime64 data.

Float64Index

Index of purely float64 labels (deprecated).

Int64Index

Index of purely int64 labels (deprecated).

IntervalIndex

An Index of :None:class:`Interval` s.

MultiIndex

A multi-level, or hierarchical Index.

NumericIndex

Index of numpy int/uint/float data.

PeriodIndex

Index of Period data.

RangeIndex

Index implementing a monotonic integer range.

TimedeltaIndex

Index of timedelta64 data.

UInt64Index

Index of purely uint64 labels (deprecated).

Examples

This example is valid syntax, but we were not able to check execution

>>> pd.Index([1, 2, 3])
Int64Index([1, 2, 3], dtype='int64')

This example is valid syntax, but we were not able to check execution

>>> pd.Index(list('abc'))
Index(['a', 'b', 'c'], dtype='object')

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
