Error: can not multiply sequence by non-int of type 'float'

I'm facing this error, I know it involves variable types, but I do not know how to make Entry get a value of type float

This error means that a variable containing a string (list, tuple, string, etc.) is being multiplied by a float. In Python, if you multiply a sequence by an integer, it repeats that sequence several times:

>>> [1,2,3] * 4
[1, 2, 3, 1, 2, 3, 1, 2, 3, 1, 2, 3]
>>> (10,20) * 3
(10, 20, 10, 20, 10, 20)
>>> "teste" * 5
'testetestetestetesteteste'

But if you try to multiply by a float, this error occurs:

>>> [1,2,3] * 1.5
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
TypeError: can't multiply sequence by non-int of type 'float'

In its GEOPLAN function, the variables fia and la are the result of the call of Entry.get , which returns the text of a control. The error then occurs because you are trying to multiply this text by a float, without first converting it to a number.

Try converting these two variables into floats before using them:

fia = float(self.entry1.get())
la = float(self.entry2.get())

It may also be interesting to check your format before conversion, in case the user entered with something that is not a number (I have no experience with TKinter, so I do not know if he can do this validation / conversion automatically ).
