Python Data Types

Python Support different types of built-in data types, which is given below –

Here below the list of built-in data types categories

How we can find data type

The data type can be found using type() keyword.

>>>a=5

>>>print(type(a))

It gives the result “int” data type.

# creating int data type

x = 5

print("Value of X =", x, "and type of x is", type(x))

# creating float data type

x = 5.0

print("Value of X =", x, "and type of x is", type(x))

# creating int data type

x = 5 + 4j

print("Value of X =", x, "and type of x is", type(x))

String is sequence of Unicode characters.

We can assign string value to a variable with single quotes or double quotes.

Multi-line strings can be denoted using triple quotes, ''' or """.

# Assigning string value with single quote

company_name = 'Codersarts.com'

print("Value of company_name =", company_name, "and type of company_name is", type(company_name))

# Assigning string value with double quote

company_name = "Codersarts.com"

print("Value of company_name =", company_name, "and type of company_name is", type(company_name))

# multi line string

x = """ We can assign string value to a variable with single quotes or double quotes.

Multi-line strings can be denoted using triple quotes.

"""

print("Value of X =", x, "and type of x is", type(x))

x = ["apple", "banana", "cherry"] #list

x = ("apple", "banana", "cherry") #tuple

x = range(6) #range

x = {"name" : "John", "age" : 36} #dict

x = {"apple", "banana", "cherry"} #set

x = frozenset({"apple", "banana", "cherry"}) #frozenset

x = True #bool

x = b"Hello" #bytes

x = bytearray(5) #bytearray

x = memoryview(bytes(5)) #memoryview
