# pandas.IndexSlice

`pandas.``IndexSlice` = <pandas.core.indexing._IndexSlice object>

  Create an object to more easily perform multi-index slicing

  Examples

      >>> midx = pd.MultiIndex.from_product([['A0','A1'], ['B0','B1','B2','B3']])
      >>> columns = ['foo', 'bar']
      >>> dfmi = pd.DataFrame(np.arange(16).reshape((len(midx), len(columns))),
                              index=midx, columns=columns)

  Using the default slice command:

      >>> dfmi.loc[(slice(None), slice('B0', 'B1')), :]
                 foo  bar
          A0 B0    0    1
             B1    2    3
          A1 B0    8    9
             B1   10   11

  Using the IndexSlice class for a more intuitive command:

      >>> idx = pd.IndexSlice
      >>> dfmi.loc[idx[:, 'B0':'B1'], :]
                 foo  bar
          A0 B0    0    1
             B1    2    3
          A1 B0    8    9
             B1   10   11
