DATA TYPES
Data types are used to define the type of value a data can contain. Each variable in Python
is associated with some data type. Each data type requires a different amount of memory and
has some specific operations performed on it. Data types are divided into four categories as
shown below:
Data Types
Numbers Sets Sequence Boolean
Integer/long Float String Lists
Complex Tuple
Number
Integer numbers, floating-point numbers, and complex numbers are the built-in numeric data
types of Python.
Integer/Long
Integers are whole numbers consisting of + or – signs. They do not have decimal places between
them.
The range of an integer can be from -2147483648 to 2147483647.
Float
Float data types represent numbers that contain a decimal point. For example, 0.6, -3.257 are
called floating-point numbers. These numbers can also be written using ‘e’ or ‘E’ to represent
the power 10.
Complex
A complex is a number that is written in the form a+ bj or a+bJ. It is represented as (real part) +
(imaginary part) j.
