Basic Data Types in Python

There are few data types in Python namely:

• integers (int) – numeric type, whole numbers (can be positive or negative), e.g. 1,2,3
• floating (float) – numeric type,numbers with decimal point, e.g. 1.1, 2.20, 3.450
• complex (complex) – numeric type, real + imaginary,e.g. 5+6q
• strings (str) – text type, sequences of characters,e.g. “Euan”, “1234”
• dictionaries (dict) – is a mapping type, unordered key:valued pairs
• lists (list) -sequence type,ordered sequence of objects,e.g.[123,”Euan”,100.0]
• sets (set) -set type, unordered collection of objects {“x”,”y”}
• booleans (bool)- logical value, either True or False
• tuples (tup), ordered,unchangeable or immutable sequence of objects
