Hi guys!

The file that results of a test I did is a .csv file, containing results only in str type.
How can I convert only a specific entire column of the .csv file into float?

Example that sums up my case:
ResultFile.csv (2 lines, 6 columns):

Output:
Hello,how,are,you,1,2
I,hope,you're,good,3,4

If I'd type the following command:

sample = open('path','r')
for line in sample:
   info = line.split(',')
   print (type(info[4]))

I'd like the result to be:

Output:
<type 'float'>
<type 'float'>

How do I need to treat the .csv file to obtain that, while the type for all other columns remains str??????

use float built-in function
