                         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.
