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,
