My Code: 

reviews_max = {}
for app in android:
    name = app[0]
    n_reviews = float(app[3])
    if name in reviews_max and reviews_max[name] < n_reviews:
        reviews_max[name] = n_reviews
    elif name not in reviews_max:
        reviews_max[name] = n_reviews

What I expected to happen:
I expected the this code to run effectively without throwing errors

What actually happened:

---------------------------------------------------------------------------
ValueError                                Traceback (most recent call last)
<ipython-input-21-d174ce8ef281> in <module>
      2 for app in android:
      3     name = app[0]
----> 4     n_reviews = float(app[3])
      5     if name in reviews_max and reviews_max[name] < n_reviews:
      6         reviews_max[name] = n_reviews

ValueError: could not convert string to float: '3.0M'

Hi @petertarnue,

Please refer to this topic: Solution code and my code are both not working - #2 by Rucha

You try convert string value “NaN” - Not a Number to number and it raising exceptions.
Before converting string like “3.5”, “3.7” to float you must remove from dataset string values “NaN”
