cast array to float python code example

Example 1: convert all values in array into float

import numpy as np
x = np.array(['1.1', '2.2', '3.3'])
y = x.astype(np.float)

Example 2: np convert to int

>>> x = np.array([[1.0, 2.3], [1.3, 2.9]])
>>> x
array([[ 1. ,  2.3],
       [ 1.3,  2.9]])
>>> x.astype(int)
array([[1, 2],
       [1, 2]])
