Refactor convert_float()
Refactor convert_float() into utils. Although the two functions are slightly different, it turns out that float("") also raises a ValueError.
@slundberg @Harsha-Nori ?
LGTM. One thought - several of your edits here are small formatting fixes like adding whitespace and changing a single quote to double quote. We should consider picking a code formatter which will make this easier as the project grows.
You may note that one of the commit comments features 'blacken' :-)
Very cool, how did you run that? Is it part of Github Actions?
Ahhh no, I'm running it manually, just on files I feel I 'own' (whatever that means, exactly). I haven't dared run it on the full codebase yet (although I have seen how to exclude a particular commit from git blame so it doesn't wreck the history). As you know @Nking92 , black is rather opinionated.
