Python : TypeError: can't multiply sequence by non-int of type 'float'
python
Solution
Your q0 value is still a string. This is basically what you're doing:
>>> q0 = '3'
>>> q1 = (q0 * 1.2)
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
TypeError: can't multiply sequence by non-int of type 'float'
To fix it, convert the string to a number first:
>>> q1 = (float(q0) * 1.2)
>>> q1
3.5999999999999996
You might also want to look into the lxml and BeautifulSoup modules for parsing XML.
Problem
I am newbie programmer trying to make an irc bot that parse xml and paste its content on a channel. Usually i find my answer on google, but this time i can't find my answer. ``` q0tag = dom.getElementsByTagName('hit')[0].toxml() q0 = q0tag.replace('<hit>','').replace('</hit>','') q1 = (q0 * 1.2) ``` when i'm trying to multiply q0 it always showing ``` TypeError: can't multiply sequence by non-int of type 'float'. ``` Im trying to make q0 int or float but it just make another error ``` AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'replace' ``` q0 value is a round number without decimal.
