I'm trying to analyze my XML file, I would like to get data X Y Z for advanced analysis later and then plot all values.
Here the XML files looks like:



      <UserPosition>

      <X>-12.2934008394709</X>

      <Y>52.488259963403273</Y>

      <Z>-0.92276278637695341</Z>

      </UserPosition>


this is my code : 



  from lxml import etree

  import matplotlib.pyplot as plt

  import numpy as np

  # Read xml files

  PostX = 

  PostY= 

  Thikness = 

  tree = etree.parse("XMLFILE.xml")

  for UserPosition in 

  tree.xpath("/cResult/measure/lMeasuredItem/cMeasureItem/UserPosition/X"):



  PostX.append(UserPosition.text)





  print PostX


I'm getting this ! :



['-12.2934008394709', '-9.1133008238197366', '-5.9329608027622784', '-2.7523007917339029',



Any help to get a proper values for analysis.

          Is there any reason you cant change



          PostX.append(UserPosition.text)


          to



          PostX.append(float(UserPosition.text))


          Otherwise, it would be helpful to see how it is all your x, y and z values (or certainly more of them) are structured in this .xml file.

A simple yellow flag (also called the "Yellow Jack") had historically been used to signal quarantine (it stands for Q among signal flags), but now indicates the opposite, as a signal of a ship free of disease that requests boarding and inspection. A quarantine is used to separate and restrict the movement of people; it is 'a restraint upon the activities or communication of persons or the transport of goods designed to prevent the spread of disease or pests', for a certain period of time. [1] This is often used in connection to disease and illness, such as those who may possibly have been exposed to a communicable disease.
