pandas.Index

class pandas.Index

Immutable ndarray implementing an ordered, sliceable set. The basic object storing axis labels for all pandas objects

Parameters:

data : array-like (1-dimensional)

dtype : NumPy dtype (default: object)

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

Notes

An Index instance can only contain hashable objects
