So, integers are numbers that do not contain a fractional part. These numbers can be both positive and negative (for example 10, -7 both of these numbers are integers). Let's take a look at the example below.

Input:
# Creating integers
x = 7
y = -10
print(f'It's a positive integer: {x}')
print(f'It's a negative integer: {y}')

Output:
It's a positive integer: 7
It's a negative integer: -10

Sometimes you have to check the type of some variables. In python, for it there is an useful function called type(). Let's look at an example of how this function works.

Input:
# Creating integers
x = 7
y = -10
print(f'The type of x is {type(x)}')
print(f'The type of y is {type(y)}')

Output:
The type of x is <class 'int'>
The type of y is <class 'int'>

It's time to practice!
