Create a GUI to convert CSV file into excel file using Python

Prerequisites: Python GUI – tkinter, Read csv using pandas

CSV file is a Comma Separated Value file that uses a comma to separate values. It is basically used for exchanging data between different applications. In this, individual rows are separated by a newline. Fields of data in each row are delimited with a comma.

Modules Needed

• Pandas: Python is a great language for doing data analysis, primarily because of the fantastic ecosystem of data-centric python packages. To install this module type the below command in the terminal.

  pip install pandas

• pandastable: This library provides a table widget for Tkinter with plotting and data manipulation functionality. To install this module type the below command in the terminal

  pip install pandastable

• tkintertable: This library is used for adding tables to a Tkinter application. To install this library type the below command in the terminal.

  pip install tkintertable

Below is the implementation.

Input CSV File:

import pandas as pd
from tkinter import *
from tkinter import filedialog
from tkinter import messagebox as msg
from pandastable import Table
from tkintertable import TableCanvas
