Explanation

Working with Excel files involves creating, opening, and modifying workbooks and their worksheets. Once the data has been written to the workbook, it must be saved and closed to ensure that the changes are persisted.

In the above example, we open an existing workbook using the openpyxl library, get the active worksheet, write some data to the worksheet, and then save and close the workbook to ensure the changes are persisted.
