The cumbersome process of using Python code in Microsoft Excel data-driven projects will soon be eased by the company's new "Python in Excel" initiative, currently in public preview.
Integrating the super-popular programming language that's the darling of data scientists everywhere with the super-popular spreadsheet program means analysts will no longer have to jump through so many workaround hoops or use third-party add-ins like xlwings, PyXLL or DataNitro.
"Python in Excel combines Python's powerful data analysis and visualization libraries with Excel's features you know and love," Microsoft said. "You can manipulate and explore data in Excel using Python plots and libraries, and then use Excel's formulas, charts and PivotTables to further refine your insights."
With the preview, users can now type Python code directly into a notebook cell and get results such as plots and visualizations from the Microsoft Cloud. As of now, the public preview works only on Excel for Windows (not Mac, web, iPad, iPhone or Android). And the cloud integration means an internet connection is required -- users with a local version of Python installed won't see any customizations made to that installation reflected in Python in Excel calculations. If all of those conditions are met, users can go to Microsoft's Python in Excel site to get started, which requires being in the Microsoft 365 Insiders program and using the Beta Channel in Excel for Windows.
While the program does require using Microsoft's cloud version of Python, it comes with the popular Anaconda enterprise Python repository and many core libraries including pandas, NumPy, Matplotlib, seaborn, scikit-learn and statsmodels.
The project's architecture was guided in part by none other than Guido van Rossum, Python's creator, emeritus BDFL (benevolent dictator for life) and Microsoft Distinguished Engineer. "I'm excited that this excellent, tight integration of Python and Excel is now seeing the light of day," he said in an Aug. 22 announcement post. "I expect that both communities will find interesting new uses in this collaboration, amplifying each partner's abilities. When I joined Microsoft three years ago, I would not have dreamed this would be possible. The Excel team excels!"

S.S. Lootah Group has announced its partnership with Tanmia, the National Human Resource Development and Employment Authority by sponsoring training courses in International Computer Driving License (ICDL) and English language offered to UAE National jobseekers registered in Tanmia’s database. The second level of this training program entitles select jobseekers to undergo a training session on management and commerce.
Tanmia will provide English language courses to National jobseekers depending on their competency, while another batch will be provided with ICDL training. On the completion of these two courses, which will commence on August 1, 2005, Tanmia will select the best performing jobseekers from the two groups and provide them training on management and commerce.
“We are glad that a large number of companies especially from the private sector have recognised the importance of supporting Tanmia’s initiatives and the Emiratisation drive in the UAE. We highly appreciate this initiative by the S.S. Lootah Group, which not only will result in the training of National jobseekers in key skills, but will also set an example for more companies in the UAE to follow,” said Marwan Al Sawaleh, Acting Director General and Director of the Employment and Skills Development Center, Tanmia.
One the other hand, Hajj Saeed Bin Ahmad, Chairman of S. S. Lootah said: “The Institute of Islamic Information and Education represents the educational arm of the group. It includes Dubai Medical College for Girls, Dubai Pharmacy College, Dubai Specialized Medical Center & Medical Research Laboratories, the Islamic School for Training and Education and the technical institute. We recently carried out the licensing procedure for World Al Lootah University of Communication, which is based on remote virtual web learning. On a general basis, the group pays special attention for improving the educational sector in the country and reinforcing the expertise of the young nationals”.
The jobseekers selected for the training by Tanmia comprise a balanced mix of Nationals with varying educational backgrounds. As a prerequisite for the training, these jobseekers are expected to have basic skills in the use of computers and the internet and the ability to read, write and speak English and Arabic.
“The number of National jobseekers registered in the Tanmia database has been increasing steadily, which puts an emphasis on the need to enhance their basic skills in English language and computers. Tanmia is also focussing on providing training to National jobseekers on important areas such as management and commerce to ensure the all round development of the jobseekers. This training will greatly benefit them by improving their problem solving and planning skills as well,” added Al Sawaleh.
S. S. Lootah Group was founded in 1956 and today has over 6000 employees. The Institute of Islamic Information and Education and its subsidiaries are regarded as an educational, informational and training services center in the country, which is supervised by Hajj Saeed Lootah personally. Hajj himself is regarded as on of the prominent personalities who actively contributed to the educational and economic sectors in the UAE. The group includes a number of non profit educational institutes and successful businesses that comprise consumer brands such as “Islamic Co-Op” products, in addition to many leading companies in various fields such as construction, building materials, pre-casts, real estate, engineering consultancy and general trade. Further, the Dubai Islamic Bank is the first Islamic bank in the world, set up as per the vision of Hajj Ahmad Lootah.
About Tanmia:
Tanmia, the National Human Resource Development & Employment Authority in the UAE, was established by a Presidential decree in November 1999, to address the imbalance in the labour market, due to excessive dependence on expatriate workforce. Tanmia is engaged in a coordinating role, between national job seekers and employers in the private and government sectors, to facilitate increased entry of nationals in the labour market. The responsibilities that rest with the Authority are: to set up the overall policy of the Authority and supervise its implementation, conduct sustained operational and administrative labour market studies and analysis, provide career counseling and guidance to the national work force, follow-up and evaluate employment of nationals in public and private sectors, support small investment enterprises through the establishment of self-employment projects for national human resources and develop programmes for training and qualifying nationals seeking employment, in conformity with the labour market needs.
Microsoft announced today that it is integrating the Python programming language into its ubiquitous Excel spreadsheet software. The public preview of this feature is available today for Microsoft 365 Insiders in the Beta Channel, initially limited to Windows users.
The integration will not require any additional software installations or add-ons. Python will be woven into Excel's built-in connectors and Power Query. Microsoft is also introducing a new PY function that will allow Python data to be displayed within the grid of an Excel spreadsheet.
In collaboration with Anaconda, an enterprise Python repository, Microsoft is making popular Python libraries like pandas, statsmodels, and Matplotlib available within Excel. This partnership aims to bring the power of Python's data manipulation and statistical modeling capabilities directly to Excel users, who number in the hundreds of millions globally.
Python calculations will run in the Microsoft Cloud, with the results returned directly into an Excel worksheet. This enables Excel users to create complex formulas, PivotTables, and charts based on Python data. The integration also supports charting libraries like Matplotlib and Seaborn, opening the door for advanced visualisations such as heatmaps, violin plots, and swarm plots.
While Python in Excel will be included in a Microsoft 365 subscription during the public preview, Microsoft has indicated that "some functionality will be restricted without a paid license" after the preview period ends.
Microsoft plans to extend this feature to other platforms "at a later date," but for now, the focus is on refining the experience for Windows users. As the lines between traditional spreadsheet manipulation and data science continue to blur, Microsoft's Python-Excel integration marks a significant step toward a more unified, powerful tool for data analysis.
For Excel users and Python enthusiasts alike, the future just became a little more integrated.
