Examples
>>> idx = pd.MultiIndex.from_product([(0, 1, 2), ('green', 'purple')], ... names=["number", "color"]) >>> idx MultiIndex([(0, 'green'), (0, 'purple'), (1, 'green'), (1, 'purple'), (2, 'green'), (2, 'purple')], names=['number', 'color']) >>> idx.drop([(1, 'green'), (2, 'purple')]) MultiIndex([(0, 'green'), (0, 'purple'), (1, 'purple'), (2, 'green')], names=['number', 'color'])
We can also drop from a specific level.
>>> idx.drop('green', level='color') MultiIndex([(0, 'purple'), (1, 'purple'), (2, 'purple')], names=['number', 'color'])
>>> idx.drop([1, 2], level=0) MultiIndex([(0, 'green'), (0, 'purple')], names=['number', 'color'])
