Question

# Python
Please help me convert the input values to float values
Code works, but the values printed need to be floats like 77.0 etc.
  
j_list = []
k_list = []
c_list = []
  
# Enter scores for Jean
print("Please enter Jean's scores one by one. ")
for i in range(4):
j_list.append(eval(input()))
print("Jeans scores:", j_list)
  
# Enter scores for Kayla
  
print("Please enter Kayla's scores one by one. ")
for i in range(4):
k_list.append(eval(input()))
print("Kayla scores: ", k_list)
  
# Enter scores for Connie
print("Please enter Connie's scores one by one. ")
for i in range(4):
c_list.append(eval(input()))
print("Connie scores: ", c_list)
  
# merging everything to a single list

all_scores = [j_list, k_list, c_list]
print("All scores", all_scores)
  
# adding one to the scores of each skaters using nested list

for i in range(len(all_scores)): #loop
for iterating through the main list
for j in range(len(all_scores[i])): #loop
for iterating through the sub list
all_scores[i][j] += 1# adding 1 to scores
print("All scores after extra point:", all_scores)
  
# now we will sort the values in the same way as previous

for i in all_scores:
i.sort()
print("Scores after sorting:", all_scores)
print(all_scores)

Answer 1

As you said the code was running well. To get your desired output, which was to convert input values to float type, you just need to change the input type from eval to float. Just this one thing will do the work. If you have any doubts regarding my answer, please tell me in the comments below. I would be very happy to help you.

NOTE: Please adjust the indentation of my code while copying according to the one in the screenshot, as the Chegg platform removes all indentation from code.

j_list = []
k_list = []

# Enter scores for Jean
print("Please enter Jean's scores one by one. ")
for i in range(4):
j_list.append(float(input()))
print("Jeans scores:", j_list)

# Enter scores for Kayla
print("Please enter Kayla's scores one by one. ")
for i in range(4):
k_list.append(float(input()))
print("Kayla scores: ", k_list)
  
# Enter scores for Connie
print("Please enter Connie's scores one by one. ")
for i in range(4):
c_list.append(float(input()))
print("Connie scores: ", c_list)
print()
# merging everything to a single list
all_scores = [j_list, k_list, c_list]
print("All scores", all_scores)
  
# adding one to the scores of each skaters using nested list
for i in range(len(all_scores)): #loop for iterating through the main list

for j in range(len(all_scores[i])): #loop for iterating through the sub list

all_scores[i][j] += 1# adding 1 to scores
print("All scores after extra point:", all_scores)
  
# now we will sort the values in the same way as previous

for i in all_scores:
i.sort()
print("Scores after sorting:", all_scores)
