Pandas version checks
-
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 main branch of pandas.
Reproducible Example
import pandas as pd
idx_1 = [2000, 2001]
idx_2 = ["a", "b"]
idx_3 = ["x", "y"]
pd.DataFrame(data={"value": range(8)}, index=pd.MultiIndex.from_product([idx_1, idx_2, idx_3])).loc[("2000", "a")]Returns
value
x 0
y 1
x 2
y 3Issue Description
For a number of our dataframe outputs, we have unfortunately mixed the dtypes of year columns as either str or int. This ambiguity means that we get our slicing notation wrong on occasion, which runs risk of returning an incorrect dataframe instead of raising a KeyError.
Following the above example,
Using .loc[("2000", "GIBBERISH")] also returns the same output as the example. I expect KeyError to be raised here as both columns do not exist in the dataframe.
Using .loc["2000"] fails and a KeyError is raised as expected.
Using .loc[("2000",)] returns the same output as .loc[2000], however, here I would expect a KeyError to be raised for the former (the latter returns the desired and correct output).
Expected Behavior
Expect to raise a KeyError, "2000" not in axis here
