Using a User Inputted Value to Filter Values (Pandas, Python 3)

Question

I would like to give the user of my program the ability to filter values in a column by a specific value of their choosing. However, my code turns up the following error "Invalid Type Comparison". Any ideas how to do this?

var2 = input("Enter Which Value you would like to filter by")
b = frame[(frame['Column1'] > var2)]
print(b)

Figured it out, easy solution. Had to convert the value to a float

b= frame[(frame['Column1'] > float(var2))]
