Excel file in openpyxl cannot be opened

Another system saves a Excel file to a specific folder. I can manually open that file just fine and the cells don't show anything weird.

I wanted to iterate over all lines with:

        Zeilen_data = 0
        while 1:
            if data.cell(row=Zeilen_data+1, column=1).value != None:
                Zeilen_data += 1
            else:
                break

(could've been done much shorter, i know) Anyway, already in column 1, cell 2, which holds just a 0, this error occurs:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/Volumes/paul/Armin/SBP/data.py", line 57, in <module>
    if data.cell(row=Zeilen_data+1, column=1).value != None:
  File "/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.9/lib/python3.9/site-packages/openpyxl/worksheet/worksheet.py", line 240, in cell
    cell = self._get_cell(row, column)
  File "/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.9/lib/python3.9/site-packages/openpyxl/worksheet/_read_only.py", line 128, in _get_cell
    for row in self._cells_by_row(column, row, column, row):
  File "/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.9/lib/python3.9/site-packages/openpyxl/worksheet/_read_only.py", line 79, in _cells_by_row
    for idx, row in parser.parse():
  File "/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.9/lib/python3.9/site-packages/openpyxl/worksheet/_reader.py", line 155, in parse
    row = self.parse_row(element)
  File "/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.9/lib/python3.9/site-packages/openpyxl/worksheet/_reader.py", line 286, in parse_row
    cells = [self.parse_cell(el) for el in row]
  File "/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.9/lib/python3.9/site-packages/openpyxl/worksheet/_reader.py", line 286, in <listcomp>
    cells = [self.parse_cell(el) for el in row]
  File "/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.9/lib/python3.9/site-packages/openpyxl/worksheet/_reader.py", line 202, in parse_cell
    value = _cast_number(value)
  File "/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.9/lib/python3.9/site-packages/openpyxl/worksheet/_reader.py", line 81, in _cast_number
    return float(value)
ValueError: could not convert string to float: '.'

I'm running out of ideas of how to fix it. Changing the line to if str(data.cell(row=Zeilen_data+1, column=1).value) != str("None"): doesn't fix it.

The only way I found is to open the file manually and just save it again. Then everything works fine, but I'd dislike to open and save it manually every time.

Where and how is this Laravel kernel constructor called? [closed]

Where and how is this Laravel kernel constructor called? public fucntion __construct(Application $app, $Router $roouter) { } I have read the documentation and some online tutorial but I can find any clear explanation. I am learning Laravel and I am wondering where does this kernel constructor receives its arguments from. "POSTMOTERM" CLARIFICATION: Here is more clarity.I have checked the boostrap/app.php and it is only used for boostrapping the interfaces into the container class. What is not clear to me is where and how the Kernel class is instatiated and the arguments passed to the object calling the constructor.Something similar to; obj = new kernel(arg1,arg2) or, is the framework using some magic functions somewhere? Special gratitude to those who burn their eyeballs and brain cells on this trivia before it goes into a full blown menopause alias "MARKED AS DUPLICATE". To some of the itchy-finger keyboard warriors, a.k.a The mods,because I believe in th...

Confusion between commands.Bot and discord.Client | Which one should I use?

Whenever you look at YouTube tutorials or code from this website there is a real variation. Some developers use client = discord.Client(intents=intents) while the others use bot = commands.Bot(command_prefix="something", intents=intents) . Now I know slightly about the difference but I get errors from different places from my code when I use either of them and its confusing. Especially since there has a few changes over the years in discord.py it is hard to find the real difference. I tried sticking to discord.Client then I found that there are more features in commands.Bot . Then I found errors when using commands.Bot . An example of this is: When I try to use commands.Bot client = commands.Bot(command_prefix=">",intents=intents) async def load(): for filename in os.listdir("./Cogs"): if filename.endswith(".py"): client.load_extension(f"Cogs.{filename[:-3]}") The above doesnt giveany response from my Cogs ...
