Open Excel Sheets in pandas
Reading specific sheets and ranges.
Excel Everywhere
Most teams still share data as spreadsheets. Good news: pandas opens them almost as easily as CSVs, so you rarely need Excel itself. 📊
The read_excel Call
To load a workbook, reach for read_excel. Give it the file path and pandas hands you a DataFrame just like before.
import pandas as pd
df = pd.read_excel("report.xlsx")All lessons in this course
