Help Required - EDA Python Code Error

[kulluM]

Hello to everyone.

I'm now working in Python on an exploratory data analysis (EDA) project, and I've run into an error that I'm having trouble resolving, so I read this post but couldn't figure it out. I'm hoping someone can assist me!

I'm attempting to generate a scatter plot from my dataset to visualise the association between two numerical variables, "age" and "income." The code I used is as follows:

import pandas as pd
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt

# Loading the dataset
data = pd.read_csv('data.csv')

# Extracting age and income columns
age = data['age']
income = data['income']

# Creating the scatter plot
plt.scatter(age, income)
plt.xlabel('Age')
plt.ylabel('Income')
plt.title('Age vs. Income')
plt.show()

When I execute the code, however, I receive the following error message:

ValueError: 'income' could not be converted to float

I have no idea what is producing this problem or how to repair it. Could someone kindly explain what I'm doing incorrectly and walk me through the proper technique to build the scatter plot for these two variables?

Any help would be much appreciated! Thank you in advance for your assistance!

@kulluM Show full code also check that: https://pandas.pydata.org/docs/user_guide/index.html

And that line:

ValueError: 'income' could not be converted to float

Mean that you have a string not a numerical value and you cant convert it.

Use tuple or dictionary to build data.
