Hi dtdave,

In my script for importing from a csv I seem to run into the following
error:
could not convert string to float
The relevant part of the script is as follows:
area_hectares=float(row[6])
That is impossible to tell without seeing the contents of your CSV file,
but obviously row 6 of that file at least sometimes contains something
that cannot be converted to a float.
I'd suggest you simply print out the values of row 6 in your script to
see which values you cannot convert and then handle that. Possibly it's
an empty string, in which case you might want to handle that by
converting that to a NoneType, but that depends on your use case of course.
Kind regards,
Kasper Laudrup
