问题
Something strange is going on. Just today when trying to read in a dataframe from an xlsx file:
import pandas as pd
df = pd.read_excel('vlnew.xlsx',sheet_name='Sheet1')
I am getting the following error: ImportError: Install xlrd >= 0.9.0 for Excel support
I am fully aware that plain and simple the instructions are to install xlrd, but I should not have to install xlrd when I was never getting this error before, and also, xlrd only applies to the old .xls file format. I am using .xlsx.
I can't understand why today all of a sudden this error is popping up. This is very strange indeed, at least to me.
Update: When I execute this script in the Spyder IDE, I do not get the xlrd import error, but just today I ran this script in the Conda command prompt and only then does it report the xlrd error. Why are there inconsistencies between the Conda command prompt and Spyder IDE?
回答1:
Try writing following command into the terminal
pip install xlrd
And then import the xlrd alongside with pandas
import xlrd and import pandas as pd
回答2:
I was getting an error "ImportError: Install xlrd >= 1.0.0 for Excel support" on Pycharm for below code
import pandas as pd
df2 = pd.read_excel("data.xlsx")
print(df2.head(3))
print(df2.tail(3))
Solution : pip install xlrd
It resolved error after using this.
Also no need to use "import xlrd" in program
