Counting Non-NaN Cells in Excel Sheets with Python

When working with Excel files, particularly those with multiple sheets, it's common to encounter non-NaN (Not a Number) cells that we may want to analyze. For instance, if you have a dataset spread across various sheets, counting the non-NaN values in the first column of each sheet can provide valuable insights.

In this guide, I'll walk you through the process of counting the non-NaN cells in the first column of each sheet in an Excel workbook using Python's pandas library. We'll also output the total counts along with the corresponding sheet names.

The Problem

You have an Excel file with multiple sheets, and you want to:

Loop through each sheet.

Count the non-NaN entries in the first column.

Output the results along with the names of the sheets.

The Example Data

Assume we have the following data in different sheets:

Step 2: Load the Excel Workbook

Next, you'll want to load your Excel workbook. Use pandas.read_excel() function to do this, and store the sheets in an OrderedDict to maintain the order of sheets.
