Calcolate the average of numbers from a .txt file

[francescomiles]

I start to learn programming few weeks ago and I'm trying to do an exercise that ask me to calculate the average of a list of number from a text file. This is my code:

file=input('Enter a file name: ')
open=open(file)
count=0
for line in open:
    line=line.rstrip()
    if line.startswith('X-DSPAM-Confidence:'):
        count=count+1
        search=line.find(':')
        numbers=line[search+1:]
        float(numbers)
        Media=sum(numbers)/count
        print('Media spam confidence: ', Media)

It gives me back this error:

Error:
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "C:\Users\frank\OneDrive\Documenti\Atom\Esercizi\Esercizio_file.py", line 11, in <module>
    Media=sum(numbers)/count
TypeError: unsupported operand type(s) for +: 'int' and 'str'

I understand the error but I don't know how to fix it

Added code tag in your post,look at BBCode on how to use.
