python中pd读取csv二进制,如何从csv文件读取python中的数字？

I have a csv file and I have to compute the mean for some of the columns.

That's how I did:

file=csv.reader(open('tab.csv','r'))

n=[]

for row in file:

n.append(row[8])

So I have a list of string : n=['','','1.58'...]

How can I convert these to float?

I tried with :

n_values=np.array(n)

n_values[n=='']='0'

values=n_values.astype(np.float)

np.mean(values)

But the mean is not correct because I should skip the empty strings not counting.

Thank for your help!

Just cast as you append:

n.append(float(row[8]))

If there are empty strings catch those before appending.

try:

n.append(float(row[8]))

except ValueError:

continue

Or you might want to try pandas, in particular pandas.read_csv:

import pandas as pd

df = pd.read_csv("in.csv")

print(df["col_name"].mean())
