Merging and transforming excel data into panel data format with python or R

Paid on delivery
The original data set is an excel file with information about 117 countries over time (1970-2013) and 40 variables per country and year. Each country's information is within one tab of the excel spreadsheet, ordered by year and then columns for each variable. I need this in one large table in panel data format (column 1: country; column 2: year; column 3...: variables). In Python or R (or whichever computer software you like to do) this should be relatively quick and easy to do. A screenshot shows the original excel file (tabs=countries), and another screenshot the desired panel data format. NO HAND CODING OR MANUAL COPY PASTING. I will need to see the code you used.

Hey, I will help you transform your Excel data into a workable Panel Data Set. For the sake of simplicity I would recommend Python as it is superior to R in data manipulation. Relevant Skills and Experience I am a Data Scientist and Statistical Programmer with a background in quantitative finance. Data manipulation is a large part of my work and I merged data sitting in different Excel tabs already. Proposed Milestones £250 GBP - Milestone I will provide the code used for the manipulation, this code is readable and most importantly reproducible. I do speak German fluently - so we could speak German as well to make communication easier. See my reviews to see my past work and to get an impression how I work with my clients.

Hi, I can complete your project. I'll be using python pandas to load in the excel files into a dataframe object and give column name to the year column and conserve rest of the column's names. Relevant Skills and Experience I'll then use universal slicing to add the year column to every row. Each of the sheet's tab will be processed in a loop and added to the end of the yet processed table resulting in a single table. Proposed Milestones £30 GBP - Project payment

Relevant Skills and Experience I have 8 years of professional python experience, most of that time was spent building tooling to support researchers. Proposed Milestones £75 GBP - Delivery of appropriately formatted excel file & python script.

I'm most comfortable coding in SAS, would be fastest. But if you do not have SAS, I can do python and R too so u can use in the future. 1. Code to import all the sheets 2. Try to do a loop for all the sheets to create a new column that is filled up with the name of sheet like Alabama 3. Check if all columns are same of each sheet 4. Append all sheets to get a table I'm a new freelancer but do give me a chance! I will do my best (:

Hi, I am a full-stack developer with a Master's degree in IT and more than four years of experience in Python and JavaScript. Relevant Skills and Experience I am skilled in the following technologies: C, C++, Python (Flask, Flask RESTful, Django, DRF) NodeJS, ExpressJS, Angular, ElectronJS PostgreSQL, MySQL, SQLite, MongoDB Proposed Milestones £125 GBP - milestone How would I approach this problem? I would first read the data and save it to data-structures (lists, tuples or dictionaries) then generate a new file with the desired structure. If this is a repetitive case I could develop a small web page using Flask framework (Python) where you upload the file, it then changes it to the desired format and shows it in the page with the possibility to download it as an excel. I am certain that you will be very pleased with my professional work and you can check my recent reviews for more details. Kindly yours.
