pandas: convert index type in multiindex dataframe

Question

Hi have a multiindex dataframe:

tuples = [(\'YTA_Q3\', 1), (\'YTA_Q3\', 2), (\'YTA_Q3\', 3), (\'YTA_Q3\', 4), (\'YTA_Q3\', 99), (\'YTA_Q3\', 96)]
# Index
ind         


        

Answer 1

I find the current pandas implementation a bit cumbersome, so I use this:

df1.index = pd.MultiIndex.from_tuples([(ix[0], str(ix[1])) for ix in df1.index.tolist()])
