What is Excel?
Excel files (.xlsx, .xls) are loaded with pd.read_excel(), which supports selecting sheets, skipping rows, and reading specific columns. The openpyxl library is required for .xlsx files. Excel is common in business environments, and analysts frequently need to read and write it as part of reporting workflows.
