Question

I have first 15 rows of a excel file as \"Header data\". and after 235 rows, \"Footer data\". I need to read data in between these header and footer da

Answer 1

Demo:

xl = pd.ExcelFile(filepath)

# parsing first (index: 0) sheet
total_rows = xl.book.sheet_by_index(0).nrows

skiprows = 15
nrows = 235 - 15

# calc number of footer rows
# (-1) - for the header row
skipfooter = total_rows - nrows - skiprows - 1

df = xl.parse(0, skiprows=skiprows, skipfooter=skipfooter)
