I know you have been told this before: Please put [code] tags around your code in posts. Stop being lazy and expecting others to do it for you.

There is no question in your post. What are you asking of the volunteers here?

hi,
There is nothing being lazy, the only thing is that i thought its better to write point 2 point, so i didnt wrote much. but in line no. 14 the question was mentioned. Also, i should have mentioned that at top to highlight it.
sorry to confuse you

Create a break point and step through the code, inspect the value varialbles[0], i'm pretty sure you'll see that it is not a float, this is why you get an error, the value provided cannot be converted into a float.
