Invalid literal for int() with base 10.

[ScottBarron]

Hi, I keep getting this error message:

Traceback (most recent call last):   File "C:\Users\sbarron\Desktop\AIDA_Tool\AutoInfastructureMask.py", line 123, in <module>     Max= int(max(Quakesim_List)) ValueError: invalid literal for int() with base 10: '999.332202045'

And I have no idea why. This code has worked on bigger numbers than this one, so I'm completely stumped. Any help would be appreciated.

Oh and for reference, the list in the code is just a list full of floating point numbers.

It appears that maybe your list contains strings  '999.332202045'

Try this, might work for you, will make sure if string, converts to float, then int:

 Max= int(float(max(Quakesim_List)))

Your variables in Quakesim_List are strings, hence the failure.

int(max(float(sim) for sim in Quakesim_List))

Do that.

Apparently it was a case of bad data. I tried with the float inserted into the code and it worked but it gave me a messed up output. I regenerated the data and it worked just fine. Thanks for your help!
