can you teach me whether Python can write into a same Excel file, but 2 different spreadsheets (tabs)?
Just for example, I want to pick and write the titles of below 4 websites, and write them into the same file title.xls but respectively in its Sheet1 and Sheet 2.
www.dailynews.com
www.dailynews.co.zw
www.gulf-daily-news.com
www.dailynews.gov.bw
I do them in 2 scripts, each for 2 websites:
from bs4 import BeautifulSoup
import urllib2
import xlwt
line_in_list = ['www.dailynews.com','www.dailynews.co.zw']
# line_in_list = [www.gulf-daily-news.com','www.dailynews.gov.bw']
book = xlwt.Workbook(encoding='utf-8', style_compression = 0)
sheet = book.add_sheet('Sheet1', cell_overwrite_ok = True)
# sheet = book.add_sheet('Sheet2', cell_overwrite_ok = True)
for cor,websites in enumerate(line_in_list):
url = "http://" + websites
page = urllib2.urlopen(url)
soup = BeautifulSoup(page.read())
site_title = soup.find_all("title")
print site_title
sheet.write (cor, 0, site_title[0].text)
book.save("title.xls")
however, the script is overwriting the sheets. I can only have either Sheet1 or Sheet2 but never both.
any helps? thanks.
If I correctly understood what you need. Sorry, can't comment to make it more clear.
sheet1 = book.add_sheet('Sheet1', cell_overwrite_ok = True)
sheet2 = book.add_sheet('Sheet2', cell_overwrite_ok = True)
sheet1.write (cor, 0, site_title[0].text)
sheet2.write (cor, 0, site_title[0].text)
