Hi There

I am not an expert in python when i try to run your "Semi-Automated-Machine-Learning-Flask-App(Drag-&-Drop-Dataset)"

I am getting the following error

ValueError: could not convert string to float: 'The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you all. Amen.'

could you please let me know how to fix this issue

@Thrqureshi , you will have to vectorize the text data either using countvectorizer or tfidfvectorizer to convert the text into vectors/numbers for the ML model to understand.
