Python is a general-purpose language that allows you to perform various tasks related to programming and data science. Thanks to Python, you can freely process many different file formats including Excel and automate your daily work.

Excel, a spreadsheet application developed by Microsoft, is one of the most popular data exchange formats used by businesses and individuals. Most likely, you too are using Excel to record expenses, plan budgets, track progress, and complete many other tasks. Why not use Python to automate boring, everyday Excel-related tasks? Write some code that will do the work for you, and you will have more time to plan your next steps and strategies. Work more efficiently, because time is money!

“How to Read and Write Excel Files in Python” is an online course that introduces you to working with Excel files in Python. You'll learn how Excel files are built and how to work with them, with practical examples. You’ll learn how to process Excel files with openpyxl, a popular Python library that allows you to read and write Excel 2010 and later. We use Python version 3.0.4 for this course, but the features covered in the course are compatible with versions going back to 2.5.0.

In the course, we will first examine how Excel files are organized, and review some basic terminology related to Excel spreadsheets. After the introduction, we will explain how to read Excel files with openpyxl and how to process them in for loops. Finally, we will see how to create Excel files and modify their content in Python. In the final quiz, you’ll do several practical tasks on Excel files.

“How to Read and Write Excel Files in Python” is one of the courses from our Python File Processing track, where you'll learn to work with different file formats in Python.
