Paste from clipboard to excel file

Question

Is there a way to automate this process? 1- create new excel file 2- paste data which is ale+redy in clipboard to this new excel file with python 3- save this excel file

I have tried to find this function in openpyxl and xlsxwriter but there is only function for writing exact data to defined cells.

edit: the data in clipboard is the result from program run before this script

thanks

Answer 1

This method gets data copied from the clipboard and converts it into a DataFrame. You can then select whichever column you want from the DataFrame and use the to_csv method to write to the Excel file.

pandas.read_clipboard(sep='\\s+', **kwargs)
DataFrame.to_csv()

Check out the documentation :
