my_df = pd.DataFrame({'A':range(10, 15),    # Constructing example data
                      'B':["x", "c", "e", "y", "i"],
                      'C':range(100, 105)})
print(my_df)                                # Displaying example data in Python console
#     A  B    C
# 0  10  x  100
# 1  11  c  101
# 2  12  e  102
# 3  13  y  103
# 4  14  i  104

#     A    C
# 0  10  100
# 1  11  101
# 2  12  102
# 3  13  103
