I have Python 2.6.6 version and I don't have access to install new modules like pandas,xlrd,xlwt.
I want to read Excel using Python . Is it possible to read Excel using Python with default modules present in Python.

1) if you are using an IDE ex. PyCharm then you can drag an drop the file in your workspace or project and open it like this --> open("myfile.csv")
it will be opened as a csv (comma seperated value)
2) otherwise, use --> the file complete path such as open("User/Desktop/myfile.csv")
in both cases use --> with open(.....) as f:
for x in f:
write some code here..
and in this case x represents an element or cell in your excel file
Based on this link: http://davis.lbl.gov/Manuals/PYTHON/library/csv.html
you should be able to use reader
and writer
commands by importing csv. You can also define different delimiters:
import csv
FileReader = csv.reader(open('FileName.csv', 'rb'), delimiter=' ',quotechar='|')
Moreover, you can map the data you are reading into a dict using DictReader
.
