Data Types
In Python, like in most programming languages, you can store objects of different types. But it's important to differentiate them in terms of computer memory. Here are the allowed data types in Python:
- Text Type:
str
- Numeric Types:
int
,float
,complex
- Sequence Types:
list
,tuple
,range
- Mapping Type:
dict
- Set Types:
set
,frozenset
- Boolean Type:
bool
- Binary Types:
bytes
,bytearray
,memoryview

function. Do not forget to use the print()
function so that Python will print the result for us. For example,
