Read data in Excel column into Python list

Question

I am using python xlwings to read a column of data in Excel 2013. Column A is populated with numbers. To import this column into a python list py_list

Answer 1

The key to this question is finding out the number of rows in column A.

The number of rows can be found with this single line using xlwings below;

rownum = sht.range('A1').end('down').last_cell.row

One needs to read the API documentation carefully to get the answer.

Once the number of rows is found, it is easy to figure out the rest.
