How to store a function parameter to an excel file

I am trying to store a function parameter ‘n’ to an excel file however I receive an error:

AttributeError: 'int' object has no attribute 'to_excel'

I have a function that takes:

def test(alpha,a,x,y,n):

I need to store n (which is a single integer) in an excel file where I tried:

n.to_excel('n.xlsx')

However I receive the error as mentioned before. I tried to make an empty DataFrame and write n into the array which allows me to run the code however there is no value in the file. I have printed n in the function and it returns the integer so a bit confused on why I cannot save this value to an excel file?

>Solution :

You will need to install library openpyxl which can create and modify excel. The final code will look something like this:

from openpyxl import Workbook

def test(alpha,a,x,y,n):
    wb = Workbook()
    ws = wb.active

    ws.append([n])

    wb.save("sample.xlsx")

test(alpha=3, a = 4, x = 10, y = 15, n = 100)
