I'm guessing you have something like list1=['1.0', '2.3', '4.4', '5.5', ...], right?
You can do this: for i in range(len(list1)): list1[i] = float(list1[i]) There's almost certainly a 1-liner you can use, but this should work. --Jason On Fri, Mar 25, 2011 at 8:19 AM, joy99 <subhakolkata1...@gmail.com> wrote: > Dear Group, > > I got a question which might be possible but I am not getting how to > do it. > > If I have a list, named, > list1=[1.0,2.3,4.4,5.5....] > > Now each element in the array holds the string property if I want to > convert them to float, how would I do it? > > Extracting the values with for and appending to a blank list it would > not solve the problem.
