title: Issues with binning using pandas.cut
body: <p>Apologies if this was already asked and solved. I spent quite some time trying to solve what should be seemingly simple.
   First the error: </p>
  
  <blockquote>
    <p>raise ValueError("Input array must be 1 dimensional")
    ValueError: Input array must be 1 dimensional</p>
  </blockquote>
  
  <p>Code leading to the error:</p>
  
  <pre><code>bins=pd.IntervalIndex.from_tuples([(29,35),(35,55),(55,80)])
  pd.cut(np.array(heart_data.Age),bins=bins,labels=["Youth","Mid-Age","Old"])
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>A sample of my data(Thanks to Chris A for the tip):</p>

  <p>What could be the issue? I have tried a lot of things, looked at source code before finally deciding to ask. Thanks in advance.</p>
