Description
Code Sample, a copy-pastable example if possible
import pandas as pd
import numpy as np
A = [100, 100, 200, 200, 300, 300]
B = [10, 10, 20, 21, 31,33]
C = np.random.randint(0, 99, 6)
test_df = pd.DataFrame({'A': A, 'B': B, 'C': C})
test_df = test_df.set_index(['A', 'B'])
print(test_df)
try:
print(test_df.loc[(100,10)])
except:
pass
try:
print(test_df.loc[(0,1)])
except KeyError:
print('test_df.loc[(0,1)] raises a KeyError')
try:
print(test_df.loc[(100,1)])
except KeyError as e:
print(e)
print('test_df.loc[(100,1)] raises a KeyError')
except TypeError as e:
print(e)
print('test+df.loc[(100,1)]) raises a TypeError')
Problem description
If the value is not present in the index, I believe that a KeyError should be raised consistently, so you can write code like.
try:
df.loc[tuple]
except KeyError:
# do something if the value isn't present
Expected Output
If df.loc[tuple] does not have a match in the multiindex, a KeyError should be raised.
