Course description
Suitable for people familiar with basic Python, this intermediate course uses Python frameworks to manipulate Excel spreadsheet and Google Sheets data. We use various Python libraries for manipulating Excel formats, especially OpenPyXL.
We also use xlsxWriter and tools for binary and legacy formats such as pylxsb, xlsd, xlst and xlUtils. These are used to manipulate cell data, worksheets, files, charts, format data and produce summary reports in Excel format, sometimes without opening Excel.
We also automate Excel with xlWings. People with VBA experience will find many of the operations familiar.
