This is a game changer. When I considered the possibility of using Python in Excel, I was thinking it might be in place of Visual Basic and hadn't considered the possibilities of using libraries as you've demonstrated. I'm still interested in the possibilities of using for loops to iterate through lines for some unusual requirements I might have, so I'll explore more. Thanks for sharing this info in such an easy to understand and follow way 👍🏻
Absolutely amazing, Mynda. You have already pushed open another door! What you have demonstrated here is absolutely fantastic. Many thanks also for the working material, which I immediately downloaded from your website. warm greetings from Berlin!
Wow this is really awesome! Looking forward for full deployment of Python in excel for data science! excel never ceases to amaze me in making itself relevant! thank you for sharing this, Mynda!
The power of python is that it has no limitations on the number of records in BIG BIG DATA!! 😁 I'm waiting to see if being tied to an excel spreadsheet will install a ceiling on data size 😣 Also, can we pip install any of the python libraries and then import them for use in excel ? Excel already does dataframes/tables and charts, but, traditionally, we've have to skedaddle to VBA to process text mining stuff. However, I'm looking forward to the general release to take it for a test drive. Thanks for the intro, Mynda 👍
This will be a great way of squeezing some more revenue out of Excel jocks too dumb to realize that you can completely bypass the whole Microsoft bit and make direct use of Python and NumPy and Jupyter and Pandas and Matplotlib and all the rest of it ... for free.
This is awesome! I must admit I am struggling to catch up with new Microsoft Apps and features. Thanks, Treacy for always providing relevant use case descriptions.
Be aware that besides ChatGPT and Bing, there are other Chat AIs out there as well. From my experiments with code (and in general) no one AI gives the best answer for every prompt. So it’s often worth comparing at least a couple at a time.
Mynda, what an incredible thing to see! Even not knowing a thing in Python, of course it is widely known that it is amazing and will bring new endless possibilities to Excel!
This was amazing. I look forward to each Excel Newsletter but this installment was Epic. Thank you Mynda...you continue to deliver value with each newsletter.
Python integration opens up a whole new world of possibilities! One grumble I have, though, is I can’t help but think we need the Advanced Formula Environment to replace the formula bar we’re so used to. It doesn’t seem right typing Python code in the current one!
This is fantastic news. I stopped learning VBA a while back and switched to Python. I have seen in some job postings some companies are looking to update legacy Excel and this may be an option in the future.
@@kyth2583 Do you have the beta program and downloaded Version 2309 Build 16818.20000? In Excel (Microsoft 365), File => Account (on left near bottom) => "About Excel" should have that version number (or higher) and say "Beta Channel".
There is no catching up to do. M$ simply offloaded the cost of developing the scripting language to the open-source community. The competition has been better since the 80s. Excel and Word were not better than Quattro and WordPerfect. Maybe this misstep by M$ will push their Office products to the obscurity they have deserved.
Thanks for this video Mynda. This is powerful stuff. I already use python and being able to use the python libraries with Excel is exciting. I wonder if you will be doing courses with Excel and Python Libraries in the future. If you do, let me know.
So far I can't see anything that really excites me but that might change when seeing more advanced examples. The charts alone wouldn't be incentive enough. I'm a graphics designer and often create charts but have found that simple ones everyone understands without a lengthy explanation work best. I certainly wouldn't pay extra for them.
Python is vast and the libraries make it relatively easy to get started with. If you’re already using it then it’s a no brainer. If it’s new to you then there might not be any immediate need.
It depends on how far you can see. Python and the libraries if offers is an absolute game changer here @ennykraft. Look at it this way, Microsoft will not spend the time and development effort to integrate a 3rd Party language into Excel if there wasn't going to be great advantages. The charts is just the tip of the iceberg.
Thank you for this video. Where would you recommend I look to find more information on the different type of graphs available thru Seaborn? Thank you 🙏🏽.
Hello Mynda, once again you enlightened my Excel knowledge with a new game changer "Python in Excel" with astonishing charts! My question might sound odd but with large data analysis and related charts what would you recommend: Power BI or Python in Excel? Please advise and many thanks for your easy-to-understand method, best.
Thank you! For large data reporting, I'd use Power BI 😉 for analysis, it depends on what type of analysis and how flexible you want it to be. Power BI is quite rigid, whereas Excel is the opposite.
@@MyOnlineTrainingHub Thanks for the guidance! I'm actually a financial management specialist and deal with large data for analysis and reporting. I sometimes need to focus on specific data that do not require huge amounts of information and that's where "Python in Excel" comes in. I like the flexibility and the related charts' availability. Also, I have the Business subscription how can I get it, unless I'm mistaken I haven't seen a way of getting "Python in Excel". Could you help or assist? Many thanks in advance.

For Excel users who don't know Python, the main benefits I see are the charts. Excel doesn't have anything like the charts available in Python. If you're a data analyst, then the Python stats are excellent. I don't know Python, but I found with ChatGPT I was able to use it relatively easily.
I'm impressed. I will have to spend the time playing with it. I keep an excel spreadsheet with daily calorie intake as well as protein, fat, weight, etc. Is there an easy way that python can scale all the charts at once?
Kind of. If you recalculate any Python formula, they all recalculate. If you have a lot of Python formulas in Excel, then switching to manual calc might be helpful. There's a new 'stale values' format that will highlight any cells that need recalculating.
Thank you! Any libraries supported by Anaconda. More info here: techcommunity.microsoft.com/t5/excel-blog/announcing-python-in-excel-combining-the-power-of-python-and-the/bc-p/3906074#M3737
great possibilities. Like the 'picture in cell' alternative to merging cells to show the seaborn picture. Only I do not see that option in my right click menu.
I do have python. Perhaps Picture in Cell is the same as Paste Special as Picture (with link), but then you still have to size the cell or merge cells to get a proper picture.@@MyOnlineTrainingHub

That’s incredible thank you Mynda. A question, can the data frame reference a table housed in Power Query and included as a connection only in excel? That would take away the data size constraints of excel.
Good video Mynda, but the question is why do we need to code Python in Excel when Copilot for Excel is coming soon, where are we going to be able to analyze everything with AI?
Thank you for the wonderful video! It was truly informative and enlightening. I'd like to create a new sheet in my Excel file using the structure defined in Python code from another sheet. I'm having trouble writing the code to implement this. Could you assist me?
Glad you liked it! My Python skills are still limited, but I wonder if the problem you're experiencing is due to the order of evaluation i.e. Python can only reference cells above or to the left of the active cell, likewise for sheets. e.g. Sheet1 cannot reference Python on Sheet2, assuming sheets are in numeric order in the file. Hope that helps.
I need to learn this ASAP. however, I have a hard time of finding out to be a "Microsoft 365 Office Insider users on the Beta Channel". Any tips to get access by becoming a "insider user"
@@MyOnlineTrainingHub thank you, I've signed up. How long does it usually take? I want to spend the weekend on this and shine in a job interview early next week
Hi Mynda, this is amazing. Unfortunately, I don't have the privilege to give it try. I wonder what python libraries does it come with? Can user install custom packages with pip command? Since you mentioned it does come with pandas so I suppose reading data from various databases would not be an issue, but how about common packages such as openxl etc.
This is going to be amazing if it's performant. I know a bit of Python but wasn't that familiar with pandas so decided to play around with some data, and it is so much faster at doing some of the stuff I can currently only do with Power Query. One particular operation involving joins/merges and lookups on ~11,500 rows usually takes > 5 mins in Power Query, but on average is taking ~12 seconds with pandas. 96% faster. If even some of that is passed on to the end user with this, allowing for latency etc, I'm having it! Curious about how it interacts with native Excel functions, e.g. can you create a pivot table with a data frame as its source?
Wow, amazing results! You can't reference a collapsed data frame with a PivotTable, but you can expand it to cells and then reference the cells, but obviously that adds overhead to your file size with all the additional data in cells plus the Pivot cache.
Wow wow wow wow wow. That's what i think. Also how did you get so smart and cool. I won't be able to get to even 1% of this. I am working too hard in donkey cart mode to find the time to learn all this. 😢 but will try.
