pandas.Index.is_ — pandas 3.0.0.dev0+2102.g839747c3f6 documentation (original) (raw)

final Index.is_(other)[source]#

More flexible, faster check like is but that works through views.

Note: this is not the same as Index.identical(), which checks that metadata is also the same.

Parameters:

otherobject

Other object to compare against.

Returns:

bool

True if both have same underlying data, False otherwise.

See also

Index.identical

Works like Index.is_ but also checks metadata.

Examples

idx1 = pd.Index(["1", "2", "3"]) idx1.is_(idx1.view()) True

idx1.is_(idx1.copy()) False
