Python（xlrd）：如何从Excel中获取多个特定列的值？

Question

Currently I am using this to read the entire row:

wr_stats.writerow(workbook.sheet_by_name('count').row_values(rownum))

Now I want to get only the values of multiple specific columns, preferably in the order of my choice. I tried:

wr_stats.writerow(workbook.sheet_by_name('count').row_slice(rownum, start_colx=0, end_colx=2))

but that prints the data type along with the values. Instead of "3", I get "number:3".

Answer 1

Append .value to the cell you are reading, but I am not sure if this works with a slice.

By the way, if you are using Excel 2010+ you should look into https://openpyxl.readthedocs.io/en/stable/

From there you can use a list comprehension:

wr_stats.writerow([x.value for x in workbook.sheet_by_name('count').row_slice(rownum, start_colx=0, end_colx=2)])
