Description
-
I have checked that this issue has not already been reported.
-
I have confirmed this bug exists on the latest version of pandas.
-
I have confirmed this bug exists on the master branch of pandas.
Reproducible Example
import pandas as pd
import numpy as np
idx_no_nan = pd.Index([1, 2], dtype=np.float64)
idx_nan = pd.Index([1, 2, np.nan])
print("dtype=np.float64")
target = pd.Index([1, np.nan], dtype=np.float64)
print(idx_no_nan.get_indexer(target))
print(idx_no_nan.get_indexer_non_unique(target))
print(idx_nan.get_indexer(target))
print(idx_nan.get_indexer_non_unique(target))
print("dtype='object'")
target = pd.Index([1, np.nan], dtype='object')
print(idx_no_nan.get_indexer(target))
print(idx_no_nan.get_indexer_non_unique(target))
print(idx_nan.get_indexer(target))
print(idx_nan.get_indexer_non_unique(target))Issue Description
Annotated script output
dtype=np.float64
[ 0 -1]
(array([ 0, -1]), array([1])) # ← expected
[0 2]
(array([ 0, -1]), array([1])) # ← would expect (array([0, 2]), array([], dtype=int64)
dtype='object'
[ 0 -1]
(array([0, 0, 1]), array([], dtype=int64)) # ← would expect (array([0, -1]), array([1]))
[0 2]
(array([0, 2]), array([], dtype=int64) # ← expected
Expected Behavior
As the indexes and the targets are unique I would expect the output of get_indexer() and get_indexer_non_unique() to be equivalent.
dtype=np.float64
[ 0 -1]
(array([ 0, -1]), array([1]))
[0 2]
(array([0, 2]), array([], dtype=int64)
dtype='object'
[ 0 -1]
(array([0, -1]), array([1]))
[0 2]
(array([0, 2]), array([], dtype=int64)
