Neural networks can't multiply sequence by non-int of type 'float'

Hello, I need to implement a perceptron to linearly classify 2 species (Iris).

I've scoured the internet for solutions and can't get out of the problem

I took a code from the internet and tried to apply it to my csv just to see if it gave any result but as I'm a python beginner I don't know how to get around the situation. If anyone can give me a light I appreciate it.

Iris LINK.csv

import numpy as np
import pandas as pd

class Perceptron(object):

    def __init__(self, eta=0.01, epochs=50):
        self.eta = eta
        self.epochs = epochs

    def train(self, X, y):

        self.w_ = np.zeros(1 + X.shape[1])
        self.errors_ = []

        for _ in range(self.epochs):
            errors = 0
            for xi, target in zip(X, y):
                update = self.eta * (target - self.predict(xi))
                self.w_[1:] +=  update * xi
                self.w_[0] +=  update
                errors += int(update != 0.0)
            self.errors_.append(errors)
        return self

    def net_input(self, X):
        return np.dot(X, self.w_[1:]) + self.w_[0]

    def predict(self, X):
        return np.where(self.net_input(X) >= 0.0, 1, -1)

df = pd.read_csv('/home/DIRETORIO/iris.csv', header=None)

# setosa and versicolor
y = df.iloc[0:100, 4].values
y = np.where(y == 'Iris-setosa', -1, 1)

# sepal length and petal length
X = df.iloc[0:100, [0,2]].values

%matplotlib inline
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
from mlxtend.plotting import plot_decision_regions

ppn = Perceptron(epochs=10, eta=0.1)

ppn.train(X, y)
print('Weights: %s' % ppn.w_)
plot_decision_regions(X, y, clf=ppn)
plt.title('Perceptron')
plt.xlabel('sepal length [cm]')
plt.ylabel('petal length [cm]')
plt.show()

plt.plot(range(1, len(ppn.errors_)+1), ppn.errors_, marker='o')
plt.xlabel('Iterations')
plt.ylabel('Misclassifications')
plt.show()

The problem is in the dataset, try using this one here: https://archive.ics.uci.edu/ml/machine-learning-databases/iris/iris.data .

The dataset you are trying to use has header and you put as parameter header=None.

Your code worked perfectly for me using the dataset from the link above.
