Bug report

Actual behavior:

>>>float('\n')Traceback (mostrecentcalllast):File"<stdin>",line1,in<module>ValueError:couldnotconvertstringtofloat:''

Expected behavior:

>>>float('\n')Traceback (mostrecentcalllast):File"<stdin>",line1,in<module>ValueError:couldnotconvertstringtofloat:'\n'

As long as the string isn't completely whitespace, it does display properly. For example:

>>>float('\nn')Traceback (mostrecentcalllast):File"<stdin>",line1,in<module>ValueError:couldnotconvertstringtofloat:'\nn'

In addition to newlines, the same thing can be observed with tabs and carriage returns, or any combination of the three. I didn't test any additional whitespace characters, though they would likely behave the same way.
