You have an uppercase 'Confidence'. Are you using pandas or numpy? For numpy,
from Piet's email, you need a lowercase key. What does
`print df['Confidence'].shape`
yield? Because the error looks like you have an array with no size (zero
dimensions), so perhaps you are still not reading in your file correctly.
