Description

The ROOT data analysis framework is widely utilized in High Energy Physics (HEP) and features its own file output format (.root). It seamlessly integrates with software developed in C++, while for Python users, there is an interface called pyROOT. However, pyROOT has compatibility issues with python3.4. To address this, broot is a compact library designed to transform data stored in Python's numpy ndarrays into ROOT files, structuring them with a branch for each array. This library aims to offer a standardized approach for exporting Python numpy data structures into ROOT files. Furthermore, it is designed to be portable and compatible with both Python2 and Python3, as well as ROOT versions 5 and 6, without necessitating changes to the ROOT components themselves—only a standard installation is needed. Users should find that installing the library requires minimal effort, as they only need to compile the library once or choose to install it as a Python package, making it a convenient tool for data analysis. Additionally, this ease of use encourages more researchers to adopt ROOT in their workflows.

Description

The xlrd library is designed for developers looking to extract data from .xls files, which are a type of Microsoft Excel spreadsheet. This tool specifically focuses on reading data and the formatting details contained within these older Excel file formats. It's important to note that xlrd is limited to handling only .xls files moving forward. The library does not process features such as charts, macros, images, or any other embedded elements, including additional worksheets, VBA modules, or formulas, though it can retrieve the results of formula evaluations, comments, hyperlinks, and various filters such as auto, advanced, and pivot tables, as well as conditional formatting and data validation. Unfortunately, password-protected files cannot be accessed or read with this library. When using xlrd from the command line, users can view the first, second, and last rows of each sheet contained within the specified files. Additionally, it's worth mentioning that xlrd is distributed under the BSD license, providing certain freedoms for developers to utilize and modify the library as needed.
