Tabula.read_pdf - IndexError: list index out of range

Question

may I know why I will get IndexError when running the below code

import tabula
df = tabula.read_pdf("123.pdf", pages='all')[0]

IndexError: list index out of range

you have an empty list. So the index is out of range. – D.L Oct 24 '22 at 15:02 — D.L, Oct 24 '22 at 15:02

because the list that is returned to you is of course empty, which is like []
