the Microsoft-Information Service notes: Python is one of the most popular programming languages today, loved by businesses and students alike and Excel is an essential tool to organize, manipulate and analyze all kinds of data. But, until now, there hasn’t been an easy way to make those two worlds work together.
Today, we are excited to introduce the Public Preview of Python in Excel – making it possible to integrate Python and Excel analytics within the same Excel grid for uninterrupted workflow.
Python in Excel combines Python's powerful data analysis and visualization libraries with Excel's features you know and love. 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. .....see more in the MS-Introduction: https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/t5/ ... -p/3905482
MS continues:...
Work seamlessly: Now you can do advanced data analysis in the familiar Excel environment by accessing Python directly from the Excel ribbon. No set up or installation is required. Using Excel’s built-in connectors and Power Query, you can easily bring external data into Python in Excel workflows.
We’re partnering with Anaconda, a leading enterprise grade Python repository used by tens of millions of data practitioners worldwide. Python in Excel leverages Anaconda Distribution for Python running in Azure, which includes the most popular Python libraries such as pandas for data manipulation, statsmodels for advanced statistical modeling, and Matplotlib and seaborn for data visualization.
Collaborate easily
Share workbooks and Python analytics in your favorite tools like Microsoft Teams and Microsoft Outlook. Collaborate seamlessly with comments and @ mentions, and co-author with colleagues as you normally would in Excel. Teammates can refresh Python in Excel analytics for the most up-to-date information, even if they don't have Python in Excel activated.

For Excel users, this opens a new world of data analysis potential previously limited to data scientists and developers. Within your familiar spreadsheet environment, you can now harness Python’s power to perform complex statistical analyses with popular packages such as pandas and statsmodels and create sophisticated visualizations using Matplotlib and Seaborn. Python practitioners can now marry scripts and rich visualizations with the widespread accessibility of Excel, enabling an uninterrupted workflow and making your work easier to share with colleagues who primarily use Excel. The integration of the Anaconda Distribution for Python in Microsoft Excel is more than a feature; it’s a redefinition of what’s possible within data analytics. It combines Python’s advanced capabilities with Excel’s familiar interface, bridging the gap between high-powered data science and everyday business tools. The future of data analytics has arrived, and it’s more integrated, more powerful, and more accessible than ever. In this post, we’ll share how Python in Excel works, what you can do with it, and how to get started.
