Read your excel using the xlrd module and then you can use the csv module to create your own csv.
Install the xlrd module in your command line:
pip install xlrd
Python script:
import xlrd
import csv
def csv_from_excel():
wb = xlrd.open_workbook('excel.xlsx')
sh = wb.sheet_by_name('Sheet1')
your_csv_file = open('your_csv_file.csv', 'w')
wr = csv.writer(your_csv_file, quoting=csv.QUOTE_ALL)
for rownum in range(sh.nrows):
wr.writerow(sh.row_values(rownum))
your_csv_file.close()
# runs the csv_from_excel function:
csv_from_excel()
