To repeat elements of an Index, use the index.repeat() method in Pandas. Set the number of repetitions as an argument. At first, import the required libraries −
import pandas as pd
Creating Pandas index −
index = pd.Index(['Car','Bike','Airplane', 'Ship','Truck','Suburban'], name ='Transport')
Display the Pandas index −
print("Pandas Index...\n",index)
Repeat elements of the index −
print("\nResult after repeating each index element twice...\n",index.repeat(2))
Example
Following is the code −
import pandas as pd # Creating Pandas index index = pd.Index(['Car','Bike','Airplane', 'Ship','Truck','Suburban'], name ='Transport') # Display the Pandas index print("Pandas Index...\n",index) # Return the number of elements in the Index print("\nNumber of elements in the index...\n",index.size) # Return the dtype of the data print("\nThe dtype object...\n",index.dtype) # repeat elements of the index print("\nResult after repeating each index element twice...\n",index.repeat(2))
Output
This will produce the following output −
Pandas Index... Index(['Car', 'Bike', 'Airplane', 'Ship', 'Truck', 'Suburban'], dtype='object', name='Transport') Number of elements in the index... 6 The dtype object... object Result after repeating each index element twice... Index(['Car', 'Car', 'Bike', 'Bike', 'Airplane', 'Airplane', 'Ship', 'Ship', 'Truck', 'Truck', 'Suburban', 'Suburban'], dtype='object', name='Transport')
