Hi,
i have strings which look like money values (ie 34.45)
is there a way to convert them into float variables?
everytime i try I get this error: "numb = float(my_line) ValueError:
empty string for float()"
"
here's the code
************
import sys
import re
for line in sys.stdin.readlines():
my_line = line.rstrip()
numb = float(my_line)
print numb
