No proper error message

Not getting any error message when we pass a numpy array having strings of number to the MCSamples() class. The functions goes in an infinite loop and never terminates

Reproducing code please

The code should throw some error if we give a string to the MCSamples() class but rather it keeps on running the cell forever, and we need to manually interrupt the execution

OK thanks. This looks like a fairly obscure user error, but you are welcome to make a pull request with extra error handling.

Thanks for your reply, I will try it.
