This code incorporates a new function, detect_file_encoding, to automatically detect the character encoding of each file. This ensures proper handling of files with various encodings. Subsequently, the Pandas DataFrames created from these files are written out using UTF-8 encoding for consistent representation.
Removed encoding='utf-8' in pd.to_excel which is no longer valid in in pandas 1.1.0 and above

Added the detect_file_encoding() function to address issue #4 UnicodeDecodeError.
The function detects the character encoding of a text-based file using chardet library to determine the appropriate encoding when reading csv files that may not explicitly declare their encoding. It analyzes a sample of the file's content to identify the most likely character encoding scheme used.
