python excel对比,python比较两个excel表并附加正确的记录

I need to create an excel sheet comparing two sample sheets one contains the serial number and other information. Second sheet contains the warranty date. For example,

source1 sheet contains data as below

Model Serial Location

Dell 1234 A

Thoshiba 2345 B

Apple 3456 C

Cisco 4567 D

Sun 5678 E

source2 contains data as below

Serial Warranty Status

2345 1/1/2010

4567 2/2/2012

1112 3/2/2015

and the result should be

Model Serial Location Warranty Status

Dell 1234 A Not Found

Thoshiba 2345 B 1/1/2010

Apple 3456 C Not Found

Cisco 4567 D 2/2/2012

Sun 5678 E Not Found

Not Found 1112 Not Found 3/2/2015

I have found some sample scripts but my scenario contains:

Large no of data, it takes so much time to run

Serial number doesn't comes in the same order in both source1 and source2 files

Cases are there in which serial number doeskin exist in either of the source file

Please give me some suggestions and best algorithm to do this faster.

try the below code, which I modified :

import pandas as pd

source1_df = pd.read_excel('a.xlsx', sheetname='source1')

source2_df = pd.read_excel('a.xlsx', sheetname='source2')

joined_df = pd.merge(source1_df,source2_df,on='Serial',how='outer')

joined_df.to_excel('/home/user1/test/result.xlsx')

I'm not an expert in python but above one worked.
