今天用numpy 的linalg.det()求矩阵的逆的过程中出现了一个错误：
TypeError: No loop matching the specified signature and casting was found for ufunc det
查了半天发现是数据类型的问题，numpy在算逆的时候会先检查一下数据类型是否一致，若不一致就会报错（话说这个错误提示信息也太难理解了，还得看源码o(╯□╰)o）。
由于我的数据是用pandas.DataFrame读取的，所以每一列的数据类型有可能不同。
回头检查一下数据，果然有的是int，有的是float。所以全部改为float64类型。
找到了如下的方法，以及DataFrame数据类型：
DataFrame 类型转换方法—astype()
import pandas as pddf = pd.DataFrame([{'col1':'a', 'col2':'1'}, {'col1':'b', 'col2':'2'}])print df.dtypesdf['col2'] = df['col2'].astype('int')print '-----------'print df.dtypesdf['col2'] = df['col2'].astype('float64')print '-----------'print df.dtypes 输出：
col1 objectcol2 objectdtype: object-----------col1 objectcol2 int32dtype: object-----------col1 objectcol2 float64dtype: object
astype()也能一次改变所有数据的类型：
