Explanation
Openpyxl is a Python library that allows us to work with Excel files. One of the main features of Openpyxl is its ability to create, edit, and manipulate Excel sheets using Python.
In the above example, we first create a new workbook and then create a new sheet. We then add data to the sheet by assigning values to specific cells. Finally, we save the workbook to a file.
We can then load the saved workbook and select a specific sheet. We can then access the values of specific cells within the sheet by using their cell name or coordinates.
Use
Openpyxl can be used in a variety of applications where Excel files need to be created or manipulated programmatically. Some use cases include generating reports, automating data entry, and analyzing large data sets.
