this error usually occurs when you’re trying to convert a string into a different data type (like integer, float, etc.) but the format of the string doesn’t match the expected format of the data type. for example, attempting to convert the string “abc” to an integer would result in this error because “abc” is not a valid format for an integer. always ensure the string you’re trying to convert matches the expected format of the data type.
