How to read a .xlsx file using the pandas Library in iPython?

To read a .xlsx file using the pandas library in iPython, follow these steps:

1. Import Pandas: Ensure you import the pandas library.

2. Install Dependencies: If not already installed, install openpyxl (used for reading .xlsx files).

3. Use read_excel Method: Specify the file path in the method.

Here’s the code:

# Import pandas
import pandas as pd

# Read the .xlsx file
file_path = “your_file.xlsx” # Replace with the actual file path
data = pd.read_excel(file_path)

# Display the first few rows
print(data.head())

Make sure the file path is correct and that openpyxl is installed by running !pip install openpyxl if necessary.
