Python TypeError: range () integer final argument expected to receive a float

Question

I apologize in advance, I saw the answers already given for a similar error, but I could not do any of this for my case. My python is pretty simple and I'm trying to run this little piece of code:

mybox = (17.0, -13.0, 489.0644700903291, 566.0) # this 'box' is my input so these values will vary xMin, yMin, xMax, yMax = mybox yValue = range(yMin, yMax, 30) 

running it, I get an error message:

 TypeError: range() integer end argument expected, got float. 

Is there any way to use float in this range?

Thanks,

You are looking for arange, which can be found in numpy (or pylab).

 import numpy ... yValue = numpy.arange(yMin, yMax, 30.0)
