Convert Pandas DataFrame to bytes-like object

Question

Hi I am trying to convert my df to binary and store it in a variable.

my_df:

 df = pd.DataFrame({\'A\':[1,2,3],\'B\':[4,5,6]})

my code

Answer 1

I solved the issue by upgrading pandas to newer version.

 import io
 towrite = io.BytesIO()
 df.to_excel(towrite)  # write to BytesIO buffer
 towrite.seek(0) 
 print(towrite)
 b''
 print(type(towrite))
 _io.BytesIO

if you want to see the bytes-like object use getvalue,

print(towrite.getvalue())
b'PK\x03\x04\x14\x00\x00\x00\x08\x00\x00\x00!\x00<\xb
