python - How to remove the u' and some other information from Ipython/Pandas output -

i've been reading great python data analysis book , following exercises along, outputs not same outputs shown in book.

one of them happens when want print indices of data frame object. example:

>>> data = series(np.random.randn(10), index=[['a', 'a', 'a', 'b', 'b', 'b', 'c', 'c', 'd', 'd'],[1, 2, 3, 1, 2, 3, 1, 2, 2, 3]])

when call data.index, output different book. here's output shown in book:

multiindex [('a', 1) ('a', 2) ('a', 3) ('b', 1) ('b', 2) ('b', 3) ('c', 1) ('c', 2) ('d', 2) ('d', 3)]

and output:

multiindex(levels=[[u'a', u'b', u'c', u'd'], [1, 2, 3]],        labels=[[0, 0, 0, 1, 1, 1, 2, 2, 3, 3], [0, 1, 2, 0, 1, 2, 0, 1, 1, 2]])

how configure either ipython or pandas change output formatting? @ least u' piece of string.

edit: i'm using python 2.7.

you can have display if list conversion:

data.index.tolist()  #[('a', 1l), ('a', 2l), ('a', 3l), ('b', 1l), ('b', 2l), ('b', 3l), ('c', 1l), ('c', 2l), ('d', 2l), ('d', 3l)]

Print F
