Snakes on a dataframe

Thinking about upgrading to Debian Bullseye? Watch out for changes in Exim and anything using Python 2.x

Anaconda's Python will live in a cozy, temperature controlled Microsoft Azure environment. The rationale for doing so is that this keeps Excel users from having to manage the potential complexity of Python configuration on a local machine. Also, the cloud habitat for Anaconda's Python will presumably be more secure than having Excel users downloading libraries on their own. Having anticipated concerns about enabling yet another attack vector in Excel, Microsoft has preemptively declared that its snake has been tamed.Excel's Python code runs on hypervisor isolated containers built on Azure Container Instances.

Python developers have long been able to craft code that reads and writes data to and from Excel spreadsheets via libraries like. But Microsoft appears to be betting that its backend management and code-ready spreadsheets will be a more appealing option. Writing Python code in the Excel public preview – currently available through the beta channel to those in the Microsoft 365 Insiders program, and coming first to Excel for Windows, build 16818 – is simply a matter of invoking the Python function and writing Python code in that spreadsheet cell.
