To reindex a dataframe with a MultiIndex, you can use the reindex()
method and specify the new index using a list of tuples, where each tuple contains the new index values for each level of the MultiIndex.
Here's an example:
import pandas as pd
# create a dataframe with a MultiIndex
df = pd.DataFrame({
'A': [1, 2, 3, 4],
'B': [5, 6, 7, 8]
}, index=pd.MultiIndex.from_tuples([('X', 'a'), ('X', 'b'), ('Y', 'c'), ('Y', 'd')], names=['First', 'Second']))
# reindex the dataframe with a new MultiIndex
new_index = [('X', 'a'), ('X', 'c'), ('Y', 'b'), ('Y', 'd'), ('Z', 'e')]
new_df = df.reindex(new_index, fill_value=0)
print(new_df)
Output:
A B
First Second
X a 1 5
c 0 0
Y b 0 0
d 4 8
Z e 0 0
In this example, we create a new MultiIndex new_index
and pass it to the reindex()
method. We also specify fill_value=0
to fill any missing values with zeros. The resulting dataframe has the same columns as the original, but with a new index based on the new_index
list. Note that any index levels that are not included in the new index will be dropped from the resulting dataframe.
