How to do it...

Enter the following commands in a code cell:

df1 = pd.DataFrame([['Pen', 24, 2.39],                    ['Eraser', 32, 1.29],                    ['Sharpener', 12, 10.39],                    ['Pencil', 42, 0.59 ]],                   index=[100024, 201024, 202034, 101122],                   columns = ['item', 'inventory', 'unit_price'])df2 = pd.DataFrame({'item': ('Pen', 'Eraser', 'Sharpener', 'Pencil'),                    'inventory': (24, 32, 12, 42),                    'unit_price': (2.39, 1.29, 10.39, 0.59)},                   index=[100024, 201024, 202034, 101122])

This code shows how to generate two DataFrame objects containing essentially the same data, that could represent the inventory of an office supplies store.
