In the lab that I work in, we process a lot of data produced by a 96 well plate reader. I'm trying to write a script that will perform a few calculations and output a bar graph using matplotlib.
The problem is that the plate reader outputs data into a .xlsx file. I understand that some modules like pandas have a read_excel function, can you explain how I should go about reading the excel file and putting it into a dataframe?
Thanks
Data sample of a 24 well plate (for simplicity):
0.0868 0.0910 0.0912 0.0929 0.1082 0.1350
0.0466 0.0499 0.0367 0.0445 0.0480 0.0615
0.6998 0.8476 0.9605 0.0429 1.1092 0.0644
0.0970 0.0931 0.1090 0.1002 0.1265 0.1455

This task is super easy in Pandas these days.
import pandas as pd
df = pd.read_excel('file_name_here.xlsx', sheet_name
