Applies to Linux

MultiIndex.get_loc(key, method=None, tolerance=None)#

Get location for a label or a tuple of labels.

The location is returned as an integer/slice or boolean mask.

Parameters#

key : label or tuple of labels (one for each level) method : None

Returns#

locint, slice object or boolean mask
  • If index is unique, search result is unique, return a single int.

  • If index is monotonic, index is returned as a slice object.

  • Otherwise, cudf attempts a best effort to convert the search result into a slice object, and will return a boolean mask if failed to do so. Notice this can deviate from Pandas behavior in some situations.

Examples#

>>> import cudf
>>> mi = cudf.MultiIndex.from_tuples(
...     [('a', 'd'), ('b', 'e'), ('b', 'f')])
>>> mi.get_loc('b')
slice(1, 3, None)
>>> mi.get_loc(('b', 'e'))
1
>>> non_monotonic_non_unique_idx = cudf.MultiIndex.from_tuples(
...     [('c', 'd'), ('b', 'e'), ('a', 'f'), ('b', 'e')])
>>> non_monotonic_non_unique_idx.get_loc('b') # differ from pandas
slice(1, 4, 2)
