Reading numeric Excel data as text using xlrd in Python -

-

i trying read in excel file using xlrd, , wondering if there way ignore cell formatting used in excel file, , import data text?

here code using far:

import xlrd  xls_file = 'xltest.xls' xls_workbook = xlrd.open_workbook(xls_file) xls_sheet = xls_workbook.sheet_by_index(0)  raw_data = [['']*xls_sheet.ncols _ in range(xls_sheet.nrows)] raw_str = '' feild_delim = ',' text_delim = '"'  rnum in range(xls_sheet.nrows):     cnum in range(xls_sheet.ncols):         raw_data[rnum][cnum] = str(xls_sheet.cell(rnum,cnum).value)  rnum in range(len(raw_data)):     cnum in range(len(raw_data[rnum])):         if (cnum == len(raw_data[rnum]) - 1):             feild_delim = '\n'         else:             feild_delim = ','         raw_str += text_delim + raw_data[rnum][cnum] + text_delim + feild_delim  final_csv = open('final.csv', 'w') final_csv.write(raw_str) final_csv.close()

this code functional, there fields, such zip code, imported numbers, have decimal 0 suffix. example, there zip code of '79854' in excel file, imported '79854.0'.

i have tried finding solution in xlrd spec, unsuccessful.

that's because integer values in excel imported floats in python. thus, sheet.cell(r,c).value returns float. try converting values integers first make sure values integers in excel begin with:

cell = sheet.cell(r,c) cell_value = cell.value if cell.ctype in (2,3) , int(cell_value) == cell_value:     cell_value = int(cell_value)

it is in xlrd spec.

javascript - Enclosure Memory Copies -

function myclass() { //lots , lots of vars , code here. this.bar = function() { //do numerous enclosed myclass vars } this.foo = function() { alert('hello'); //don't enclosed variables. } } each instance of myclass gets own copy of bar , foo, why prototyped methods use less memory. however, know more memory use of inner methods. it seems obvious me (1) below must true. agree? not distinct myclass instances have own distinct copies of bar, must have own distinct copies of myclass enclosure. (or else how bar method keep myclass variables straight on per instance basis?) now (2) question i'm after. since inner foo method doesn't use in myclass enclosure natural qustion is: javascript smart enough not keep myclass enclosure in memory use of foo? this depend entirely on implementation not language. naive implementations keep far more around others. answer true e.g. v8 (chrome's js engine) may not true spider...

example preg_replace('/\{[a-za-z.,\(\)0-9]+\}/', 'replaced', 'lorem ipsum dolor sit {tag1({tag2()})}, consectetur adipiscing elit.'); the result: lorem ipsum dolor sit {tag1(replaced)}, consectetur adipiscing elit. question as can see "tag2" has been replaced, want replace "tag1" know how can this? (in cases might this: {tag1({tag2({tag3()})})}) , on.) btw using preg_replace_callback, easier show preg_replace here site can test code: http://www.spaweditor.com/scripts/regex/index.php you need add curly braces character set. here's pattern used: /\{[a-za-z.,\(\)\{\}0-9]+\}/ and here result: "lorem ipsum dolor sit replaced, consectetur adipiscing elit."
