Python: Convert String Output to Numerical Values

This code snippet demonstrates how to convert string output to numerical values in Python. Specifically, it focuses on using the float() function to convert the output of a conductivity calculation from strings to floating-point numbers.

The initial code snippet likely outputs conductivity results as strings. To achieve numerical output, we can utilize the float() function within the print() statements:

freq_list = [1, 2, 3, 7, 11, 17, 23, 31, 43, 61, 89, 127, 179, 251, 349]
conductivity_list = [976, 1987, 3850, 5650, 7450, 9238]
conductivity_list.reverse()
for name in ['A', 'B', 'C', 'D', 'E', 'F', 'G', 'H']:
    tumor_result = calculate_conductivity(tumor_dict[name], df_saline_median)
    peritumor_result = calculate_conductivity(peritumor_dict[name], df_saline_median)
    print(f'Tumor {name}: {float(tumor_result)}')
    print(f'Peritumor {name}: {float(peritumor_result)}')

This modification ensures that the tumor_result and peritumor_result values are printed as floating-point numbers rather than strings.
