¿Por qué no puedo convertir una lista de str en una lista de flotantes?

Question

Empiezo a escribir un código, pero falla al principio.

Este es mi código:

import csv 
reader = csv.reader(open("QstartRefseqhg19.head"), dialect='excel-tab') 

for row in reader: 
    C = row[1].split(",")[1:] 
    C1 = [float(i) for i in C] 

    print C1 

y el registro de errores dice:

Traceback (most recent call last): 
    File "/home/geparada/workspace/SJtag/src/TagGen.py", line 8, in <module> 
    C1 = [float(i) for i in C] 
ValueError: empty string for float() 

También he intentado

import csv 
reader = csv.reader(open("QstartRefseqhg19.head"), dialect='excel-tab') 

for row in reader: 
    C = row[1].split(",")[1:]  
    C1 = map(float, C)   

    print C1 

Mi archivo de entrada tiene el siguiente aspecto:

Answer 1

Su línea de entrada se termina con una coma, por ejemplo .:

0,182,283,388,470,579,757, 

Así que, naturalmente, esta se dividirá en:

['0', '182', '283', '388', '470', '579', '757', ''] 

El último elemento siempre habrá una cadena vacía, ''. Tendrás que dar cuenta de esto. Una forma es simplemente ignorándolo:

C1 = [float(i) for i in C if i] 

O cortando el último elemento antes de la fundición:

C = row[1].split(",")[1:-1] # the slice will exclude first and last elements 

Answer 2

podría usar try/excepto cuando la conversión a flotar y ValueErrors de captura.

C = row[1].split(",")[1:] 
    for item in C: 
    try: 
     convert=float(item) 
    except ValueError: 
     print "not a number"
