TypeError: object of type 'type' has no len()

This would need debugging. You're calling Python3.6 from ~/anaconda2? I suspect the Python installation could have issues.

I am running python 3.6 in a python virtual environment. All other kaggle scripts seem to run well in this environment. Please look at https://conda.io/docs/user-guide/tasks/manage-environments.html for how this environment was created.

I have same problem((

I'll need sample data to debug this case.
