I have an excel sheet:
31-12-2019 31-01-2020 28-02-2020 *(which btw is formatted as: 31-Dec-19, 31-Jan-20, etc. not sure if relevant)*
1 -0,36% 0,12% -0,09%
2 -0,18% 0,06% -0,07%
3 0,05% 0,04% 0,14%
To be clear, the problem is not in reading the file, but the issue below.
I want to read this file with pandas in python and have the dates in the header as strings . So that later i can to refer to any column with something like df['31-12-2019'].
When I read the excel now, I get a keyerror message, because the formats of the dates in the header are changed. I read it like this now:
curve = pd.read_excel("Monthly curves.xlsx", sheet_name = "swap", skiprows = 1, index_col = 0)
I receive the error when selecting for instance column 31-12-2019: "Keyerror: '31-12-2019'. Any help would be much appreciated!
Also, the first column does not have a header, how can I name it myself as 'years'?
It worked when I used this:
import pandas as pnd
file = 'excelfile.xlsx'
df = pnd.read_excel(file,sheet_name=0,index_col=0)
df.head()
I don't know about naming the headers though...
I worked around my problem by reading the file as follows:
curve = pd.read_excel("Monthly Curves.xlsx", sheet_name = "swap", index_col = 0, skiprows = 2, header = None)
Then to select for instance the 91th column I used.loc (because.ix is deprecated), and I did that in the following way:
M12 = curve.loc[:, 91]
Hope that helps others as well!
