Python: Converting string into decimal number

Question

I have a python list with strings in this format:

A1 = [\' \"29.0\" \',\' \"65.2\" \',\' \"75.2\" \']

How do I convert those strings into d

Answer 1

You will need to use strip() because of the extra bits in the strings.

A2 = [float(x.strip('"')) for x in A1]
