         -------
         indexer : ndarray of int
             Integers from 0 to n - 1 indicating that the index at these
             positions matches the corresponding target values. Missing values
             in the target are marked by -1.

+        Examples

+        >>> index = pd.Index(['c', 'a', 'b'])
+        >>> index.get_indexer(['a', 'b', 'x'])
+        array([ 1,  2, -1])
+
+        Notice that the return value is an array of locations in ``index``
+        and ``x`` is marked by -1, as it is not in ``index``.
