It looks to me like you know how to program in some other language, possibly C, 
and your other language's needs are affecting the way that you write Python.  

You are supplying an explicit variable, b to step through... something.  I 
THINK that you want to step through t_amb, and not through the Bth element of 
t_amb.  Python's "in" statement will do this for you automatically, without you 
having to keep track of an index variable.

You didn't show your import statements, but I assume you are using the xlwt 
module.  That's where I find the sheet.write() function.  Now, exactly HOW did 
you want to write the data back to the Excel file?  In a single column?  A 
single row?  Or in a diagonal?  You have two nested loops.  I'm confused by the 
fact that you are incrementing both the row and column indices for 
sheet.write().

Do you know about the enumerate() function?  It's very handy.  It yields a 
tuple, the first element of which is a number counting up from zero, and the 
second element of which is an element from the (iterable) variable that you 
provide.

Does this code accomplish your task?

for column, data in enumerate(t_amb):
    sheet.write(8, column+1, data)

Or this?

for row, data in enumerate(t_amb):
    sheet.write(row+8, 1, data)

If you have any questions, feel free to ask.
