hich turned out to be pretty popular) I showed you how to read Excel files with Python. Now for the reverse: writing Excel files.
First, you’ll need to install the xlwt package by John Machin.

The basics

In order to write data to an Excel spreadsheet, first you have to initialize a Workbook object and then add a Worksheet object to that Workbook. It goes something like this:
import xlwt
wbk = xlwt.Workbook()
sheet = wbk.add_sheet('sheet 1')

Now that the sheet is created, it’s very easy to write data to it.
# indexing is zero based, row then column
sheet.write(0,1,'test text')

When you’re done, save the workbook (you don’t have to close it like you do with a file object)
wbk.save('test.xls')

Digging deeper

Overwriting cells

Worksheet objects, by default, give you a warning when you try to overwrite:
sheet.write(0,0,'test')
sheet.write(0,0,'oops')

# returns error:
# Exception: Attempt to overwrite cell: sheetname=u'sheet 1' rowx=0 colx=0

To change this behavior, use the cell_overwrite_ok=True kwarg when creating the worksheet, like so:
sheet2 = wbk.add_sheet('sheet 2', cell_overwrite_ok=True)
sheet2.write(0,0,'some text')
sheet2.write(0,0,'this should overwrite')

Now you can overwrite sheet 2 (but not sheet 1).

More goodies

# Initialize a style
style = xlwt.XFStyle()

# Create a font to use with the style
font = xlwt.Font()
font.name = 'Times New Roman'
font.bold = True

# Set the style's font to this new one you set up
style.font = font

# Use the style when writing
sheet.write(0, 0, 'some bold Times text', style)
