    -------
    A DataFrame with one row for each match, and one column for each
    group. Its rows have a MultiIndex with first levels that come from
    the subject Series. The last level is named 'match' and indicates
    the order in the subject. Any capture group names in regular
    expression pat will be used for column names; otherwise capture
    group numbers will be used.

    See Also
    --------
    extract : returns first match only (not all matches)

    Examples
    --------
    A pattern with one group will return a DataFrame with one column.
    Indices with no matches will not appear in the result.

      match
    A 0      1
      1      2
    B 0      1

    Capture group names are used for column names of the result.

    >>> s.str.extractall("[ab](?P<digit>\d)")
            digit
      match
    A 0         1
      1         2
    B 0         1

    A pattern with two groups will return a DataFrame with two columns.

    >>> s.str.extractall("(?P<letter>[ab])(?P<digit>\d)")
            letter digit
      match
    A 0          a     1
      1          a     2
    B 0          b     1
