这应该很快，但是我正在做的枢轴/组合工作都没有提出我需要的东西。
我有一张这样的表：
Letter Period Amount
YrMnth
2014-12 B 6 0
2014-12 C 8 1
2014-12 C 9 2
2014-12 C 10 3
2014-12 C 6 4
2014-12 C 12 5
2014-12 C 7 6
2014-12 C 11 7
2014-12 D 9 8
2014-12 D 10 9
2014-12 D 1 10
2014-12 D 8 11
2014-12 D 6 12
2014-12 D 12 13
2014-12 D 7 14
2014-12 D 11 15
2014-12 D 4 16
2014-12 D 3 17
2015-01 B 7 18
2015-01 B 8 19
2015-01 B 1 20
2015-01 B 10 21
2015-01 B 11 22
2015-01 B 6 23
2015-01 B 9 24
2015-01 B 3 25
2015-01 B 5 26
2015-01 C 10 27
我想转动它，以便索引基本上是YrMonth和Letter，Period是列，Amount是值。
我一般都理解Pivot，但是当我尝试使用多个索引时，我会遇到错误。我把索引作为一个列，并尝试了这个：
In [76]: df.pivot(index=['YrMnth','Letter'], values='Amount', columns='Period')
但我出现了这个错误：

答案 0 :(得分：2)
如果我理解正确，pivot_table可能更接近您的需要：
df = df.pivot_table(index=["YrMnth", "Letter"], columns="Period", values="Amount")
这给了你：
Period 1 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12
YrMnth Letter
2014-12 B NaN NaN NaN NaN 0 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN
C NaN NaN NaN NaN 4 6 1 2 3 7 5
D 10 17 16 NaN 12 14 11 8 9 15 13
2015-01 B 20 25 NaN 26 23 18 19 24 21 22 NaN
C NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 27 NaN NaN
正如评论中所建议的那样：
df = pd.pivot_table(df, index=["YrMnth", "Letter"], columns="Period", values="Amount")
Period 1 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12
YrMnth Letter
2014-12 B NaN NaN NaN NaN 0 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN
C NaN NaN NaN NaN 4 6 1 2 3 7 5
D 10 17 16 NaN 12 14 11 8 9 15 13
2015-01 B 20 25 NaN 26 23 18 19 24 21 22 NaN
C NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 27 NaN NaN
如果有人想澄清前者如何失败，那么也会产生相同的效果。
