I have a partial code to import excel into Python as strings. How I can exclude first row when importing data from excel into Python?
import pandas as pd
data = pd.read_excel(".xlsx", parse_cols="A,C,E,G, I, K, M, O, Q, S, U, W, Y, AA, AC, AE, AG, AI, AK, AM, AO, AQ, AS, AU, AW, AY, BA, BC, BE, BG, BI, BK, BM, BO, BQ, BS, BU, BW, BY, CA, CC, CE, CG, CI, CK, CM, CO, CQ, CS, CU, CW, CY, DA, DC, DE, DG, DI, DK, DM, DO, DQ, DS, DU, DW, DY, EA, EC, DE, EG, EI, EK, EM, EO, EQ, ES, EU, EW, EY")
data = data.to_string()
Method 1: Skip One Specific Row #import DataFrame and skip 2nd row df = pd. Method 2: Skip Several Specific Rows #import DataFrame and skip 2nd and 4th row df = pd. Method 3: Skip First N Rows #import DataFrame and skip first 2 rows df = pd.
Select the header or the first row of your list and press Shift + Ctrl + ↓(the drop down button), then the list has been selected except the first row.
Skip Columns From Excel Sheet Sometimes while reading an excel sheet into pandas DataFrame you may need to skip columns, you can do this by using usecols param. This takes values {int, str, list-like, or callable default None}. To specify the list of column names or positions use a list of strings or a list of int.
The pandas documentation for the pd.read_excel
method mentions a skiprows
parameter that you can use to exclude the first row of your excel file.
Example
import pandas as pd
data = pd.read_excel("file.xlsx", parse_cols="A,C,E,G", skiprows=[0])
