Curriculum

Introduction to Python-Excel Integration

This introductory section lays the groundwork for automating Excel with Python. You'll begin with an overview of the course and explore the most commonly used Python libraries for Excel, including OpenPyXL, Pandas, Xlsxwriter, and Pywin32. The lectures then dive into practical skills, teaching you how to open existing Excel workbooks, read data from specific cells, rows, and columns, and then write new data into cells. You'll also learn essential file management like saving, renaming, creating new workbooks and worksheets, and managing sheets by deleting or renaming them. The section concludes with fundamental Excel styling: applying font styles, colors, alignment, merging and unmerging cells, adjusting column widths and row heights, adding borders, and number formatting, along with adding filters and freezing panes for better data presentation. Finally, you'll learn how to load Excel files directly into Pandas DataFrames for initial exploration and basic data cleaning.
