A Recap of Python

2 min readDec 18, 2023

Hello readers! I am posting on Python after a long time and have decided to use this post as a recap of some important topics of Python.

Let’s begin-

1. Data Types

Data types are basically the type of data that can be stored in a variable. Python supports quite a few data types. The main data types supported by Python are-

a. Integer, (int):

The int data type stores an integer. For example;

a=26
  print(type(a))

The output will show-

<class 'int'>

b. Floating point, (float):

The float data type stores a decimal number. For example;

b=14.98
  print(type(b))

The output will be-

<class 'float'>

You can read more about numbers in Python here.

c. Text, (str):

The str data type stores text. For example;

c='Hello'
  print(type(a))

The output will be returned as-

<class 'str'>

d. List, (list):

The list data type stores a list of strings or numbers. For example;

List=[1, 2.6, -45, 'Hello']
  print(type(List))

The output:

<class 'list'>
