Erm, yes, but there is almost always a better way than eval().
Note the following:
>>> float('1.700000e+01')
17.0
>>> int('1.700000e+01')
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<pyshell#1>", line 1, in -toplevel-
int('1.700000e+01')
ValueError: invalid literal for int(): 1.700000e+01
>>> int(float('1.70000e+01'))
17
This should be enough to allow you to parse your values, assuming you are
really sure that they are always going to be integers.
