无法从Python 3.6读取Excel文件

Question

I am unable to read excel files. I am having MS Excel 2016.

import pandas as pd

with open(r'dummy.xlsx','r') as exl:
  p = pd.ExcelFile(exl)
  print(p.sheet_names)


runfile('C:/Users/ESETPRI/Documents/My Python Scripts/pdf read.py', wdir='C:/Users/ESETPRI/Documents/My Python Scripts')
Traceback (most recent call last):

  File "<ipython-input-13-eb59316a92ec>", line 1, in <module>

return codecs.charmap_decode(input,self.errors,decoding_table)[0]

UnicodeDecodeError: 'charmap' codec can't decode byte 0x8f in position 634: character maps to <undefined>

Tried different type of encoding UTF-8, UTF-16, ASCII, CP1252 but no success. Even the tried with an empty xlsx file, same result.

UnicodeDecodeError: 'utf-8' codec can't decode byte 0xa4 in position 14: invalid start byte

UnicodeDecodeError: 'utf-16-le' codec can't decode bytes in position 602-603: illegal encoding

UnicodeDecodeError: 'charmap' codec can't decode byte 0x8f in position 634: character maps to <undefined>

UnicodeDecodeError: 'ascii' codec can't decode byte 0xa4 in position 14: ordinal not in range(128)

EDIT

Tried 'latin-1' as well

 File "C:\Users\ESETPRI\AppData\Local\Continuum\anaconda3\lib\site-packages\xlrd\book.py", line 672, in get2bytes
return (BYTES_ORD(hi) << 8) | BYTES_ORD(lo)

 TypeError: unsupported operand type(s) for <<: 'str' and 'int'

Answer 1

From the docs try read_excel

>>> pd.read_excel('tmp.xlsx')
      Name  Value
0  string1      1
1  string2      2
2  string3      3

Answer 2

try this

With pandas

workbook_df=pd.ExcelFile(input_file_path)
key_sheet = workbook_df.parse("KEY")

With openpyxl

wb = openpyxl.load_workbook(input_file_path)
write_output = wb.get_sheet_by_name('OUTPUT')
