float() does not work with byte strings #147

JardarM commented 6 years ago

Hi

Seems like float does not work wity byte strings.

Working:

>>>int(b'10')
>>>10

Not working:

>>>float(b'10.1') 
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
TypeError: can't convert bytes to float

Working:

>>>float(b'10.1'.decode())
>>>10.1

Works with the micropython.org version. The Python engine 1.8.6 of Pycom is a little outdated.
