Python | Pandas MultiIndex.levshape

Python is a great language for doing data analysis, primarily because of the fantastic ecosystem of data-centric python packages. Pandas is one of those packages and makes importing and analyzing data much easier.

Pandas MultiIndex.levshape attribute outputs a tuple containing the length of each level in the MultiIndex.

Syntax: MultiIndex.levshape

Example #1: Use MultiIndex.levshape attribute to find the length of each levels in the MultiIndex.

# importing pandas as pd
import pandas as pd

# Creating the array
array =[[1, 2, 3], ['Sharon', 'Nick', 'Bailey']]

# Print the array
print(array)

Output :

Now let’s create the MultiIndex using this array

# Creating the MultiIndex
midx = pd.MultiIndex.from_arrays(array, names =('Number', 'Names'))

# Print the MultiIndex
print(midx)

Output :

Now we will find the length of each levels in the MultiIndex.

# Print the length of each level in MultiIndex
midx.levshape

Output :

As we can see in the output, the length of each levels in the midx MultiIndex is (3, 3).

Example #2: Use MultiIndex.levshape attribute to find the length of each levels in the given MultiIndex.

# importing pandas as pd
import pandas as pd

# Creating the array
array = [[1, 2, 3], ['Sharon', 'Nick', 'Bailey'],
                   ['Doctor', 'Scientist', 'Physicist']]

# Print the array
print(array)

Output :

Now let’s create the MultiIndex using this array

# Creating the MultiIndex
midx = pd.MultiIndex.from_arrays(array, names = ('Ranking', 'Names', 'Profession'))

# Print the MultiIndex
print(midx)

Output :

Now we will find the length of each levels in the MultiIndex.

# Print the length of each levels in MultiIndex
midx.levshape

Output :

As we can see in the output, the length of each level in the midx is 3.
