Python to delete a row in excel spreadsheet

Question

I have a really large excel file and i need to delete about 20,000 rows, contingent on meeting a simple condition and excel won\'t let me delete such a complex range when us

Answer 1

I have achieved this using Pandas package....

import pandas as pd

#Read from Excel
xl= pd.ExcelFile("test.xls")

#Parsing Excel Sheet to DataFrame
dfs = xl.parse(xl.sheet_names[0])

#Update DataFrame as per requirement
#(Here Removing the row from DataFrame having blank value in "Name" column)

dfs = dfs[dfs['Name'] != '']

#Updating the excel sheet with the updated DataFrame

dfs.to_excel("test.xls",sheet_name='Sheet1',index=False)
