As far as I can tell this affects all versions of python. Here are some
versions I played with:

2.7:

>>> float("")
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
ValueError: could not convert string to float:

3.4:

>>> float("")
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
ValueError: could not convert string to float:

3.6:

>>> float("")
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
ValueError: could not convert string to float:


3.7.0a0:

>>> float("")
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
ValueError: could not convert string to float:

Cheers,
Thomas
