Python/Pandas：在基于 Excel 单元格的附加文件中创建列

Question

I appended information from several Excel files into a single data frame. Each Excel file has the same structure but corresponds to a different city. The city name is always located in the same cell (C2).

How can I extract the city name in each file so that it appears as a column for the corresponding rows in my newly created data frame?

My appended data frame looks like this:

 Col1     Col2      
 40       34
 104      108
 23        1
 43        21

Hence, I can't tell which rows belong to file X or file Y. Ideally, I'd like to have a data frame such as:

Col1   Col2     Col3      
City A   40       34
City A  104      108
City B   23        1
City B   43       21

I'm not sure if I should edit/write directly to the Excel files before I append them in order to add the corresponding city column. Or if I should this after or in the process of appending to my data frame.

Any guidance would be great.

Edit : This is my best attempt at reproducing the structure of my Excel sheets. Note the column A and rows 5, 6 and 7 are blank. The city name is located in row 2 column C.

I want to extract the information in rows 8 through 11 and add the city name in cell C3 as a column next to these rows.

     ColA     ColB       ColC     ColD  ColE  ColF ColG
Row1          Type       XYZ                
Row2      CityName       XXX                
Row3      CityCode        10                
Row4         RYear        13                
Row5                        
Row6                        
Row7                        
Row8          Rank       Cat.       88    89   90    91
Row9            11         A       111   106  102   101
Row10           12         B       121   144  126   121
Row11           13         C       100   107  100   101

Edit2 : Following ALollz's advice, I tried the following code unsuccessfully. I get an error " 'DataFrame' object has no attribute 'ColC' ". Note that files_xlsx is a list that includes all Excel files.

all_data = pd.DataFrame()

 for f in files_xlsx:
    city_name = pd.read_excel(f, "SheetA", nrows=2).ColC[1]
    data = pd.read_excel(f, "SheetA", parse_cols="B:J")
    data['col_city'] = city_name
 all_data = all_data.append(data,ignore_index=True)

Edit3: Kept trying and finally found something that works. The only issue is that cityname is only set to one row and not the entire column, which is what I want. Any help?

  df = pd.DataFrame()

for f in files_xlsx:
    city_name = pd.read_excel(f, "Sheet1", nrows=2, parse_cols="C", header=None, skiprows=1, skip_footer=264)    
    data = pd.read_excel(f, "Sheet1", parse_cols="B:J", header=None, skiprows=8) 
    data['City'] = city_name
    df = df.append(data)

You can use nrows=1 for read only one value to one element df and then select value by DataFrame.iat :

f = 'file.xlsx'
city_name = pd.read_excel(f, "Sheet1", nrows=1, parse_cols="C", header=None, skiprows=1)    
print (city_name)
     0
0  XXX

data = pd.read_excel(f, "Sheet1", parse_cols="B:J", header=None, skiprows=8) 
data['City'] = city_name.iat[0,0]
print (data)
    0  1    2    3    4    5 City
0  11  A  111  106  102  101  XXX
1  12  B  121  144  126  121  XXX
2  13  C  100  107  100  101  XXX

In loop:

dfs = []
for f in files_xlsx:
    city_name = pd.read_excel(f, "Sheet1", nrows=1, parse_cols="C", header=None, skiprows=1)
    data = pd.read_excel(f, "Sheet1", parse_cols="B:J", header=None, skiprows=8)
    data['City'] = city_name.iat[0,0]
    dfs.append(data)

df = pd.concat(dfs, ignore_index=True)
