使用numpy在python中读取多个带有标题的CSV文件？

Question

Currently I am using this code to read one complete csv file to my code:

data = np.loadtxt('csv_Complete.csv', delimiter=',', skiprows=1)

However, Now I have multiple csv files that are in this format.

Log1.csv

x1,x2,x3,x4....
1.5,3,5,7,8
2,5,1.2,5,2
1,3,3,5.5,6

log2.csv

 x1,x2,x3,x4....
 1,3.3,5,7,8
 2,5.1,1,5.5,2
 1,3,3,5,6

This is the method I am thinking of doing but it is not working. Getting a ValueError: could not convert string to float:

log1 = np.loadtxt('log1.csv', delimiter=',', skiprows=1)
log2 = np.loadtxt('log2.csv', delimiter=',', skiprows=1)
log3 = np.loadtxt('log3.csv', delimiter=',', skiprows=1)
data = np.append([log1, log2, log3])

The error I am getting is:

 File "<ipython-input-6-6155c8de61ad>", line 1, in <module>
    runfile('C:/Users/Mmyname/.spyder2-py3/setdataexp.py', wdir='C:/Users/myname/.spyder2-py3')

ValueError: could not convert string to float: 

Answer 1

It must be a missing value in file log40a.csv .

I have the same error for file like:

x1,x2,x3,x4....
1,3.3,5,7,8
2,5.1,,5.5,2
1,3,3,5,6

Base on documentation if you have missing values you should use genfromtxt function .
