I have an excel sheet as shown above with data of employees' attendance per month. There is a row with heading status which shows number of absents of an employee. Normally I would go with:

status = data.iloc[i].value_counts()

which returns the count of all the variables in that row including the heading status.

For example, the output is:

I only need the count of A(absents). How do I achieve that?

Thanks in advance!!!

You can also access a specific value in "status" variable by:

status.loc["A"]

returns only the number of absents.
