Read data in Excel column into Python list

Question

I am using python xlwings to read a column of data in Excel 2013. Column A is populated with numbers. To import this column into a python list py_list

Answer 1

I found this as the easiest way to create lists from the entire columns in excel and it only takes the populated excel cells. import pandas as pd import numpy as np

#Insert complete path to the excel file and index of the worksheet
df = pd.read_excel("PATH.xlsx", sheet_name=0)
# insert the name of the column as a string in brackets
list1 = list(df['Column Header 1']) 
list2 = list(df['Column Header 2'])

print(list1)
print(list2)
