Type Error: 4.8000002 is not JSON serializable

[AndreasRigas]

Minimal Scala code request

private val contentType = ContentTypes.`application/json` //Data Content Type

  def requestToApi(request: gymApi): HttpResponse = {
  val url = "http://127.0.0.1" + ":" + 5000 + request.url
  val httpRequest = HttpRequest(uri = url).withMethod(request.method).withEntity(HttpEntity(contentType, """{}"""))
  val responseFuture: Future[HttpResponse] = Http().singleRequest(httpRequest)
  Await.result(responseFuture, timeout.second)
}

response match {
  case HttpResponse(StatusCodes.OK, headers, entity, _) => println(entity.toString())
}

Error:

Any ideas what problem might be ?

Solved it by re-install the requirements after I install gym Atari.

Got the exact same issue while getting the observation space.

pip list output:

You need to install this numpy==1.11.1rc1 version Also for if is atari game the observation is List[List[(Double,Double,Double)]] and not List[Double] For rendering attari you have to install gym >= 0.9.5

Change this to your requirments.txt file Flask==0.11.1 numpy==1.11.1rc1 gym==0.9.5 requests==2.11.0 pytest

and run

pip install -r requirements.txt
