KEYWORDS USED IN PYTHON

DATA TYPES
Numeric Any representation of data which
has numeric value. Python identifies
three types of numbers – integer,
float and complex number.

Positive and negative whole numbers.


Integer
Examples: 1234, -234, 0x46 (hexadecimal
number), 0O123 (octal number))

Note: In C and related programming languages


such as Python, a hexadecimal number is
prefixed with 0x and an octal number is prefixed
with 0O.

Real numbers with a floating point representation


Float in which the fractional component is denoted by
a decimal or scientific notation

Examples: -55.550, 0.005, 1.32E10 (scientific


notation))

A number with a real and imaginary component


Complex number is represented as a + bj inPython where a and b
are floats and

j = √-1

Examples: 4+6j, -2.3+6.4j

Note: The common mathematical representation


of a complex number uses a +bi with i being the
imaginary part. But in electronics j is used
because i already represent current and the next
letter after i is j.

Boolean Any representation of data which


has two values denoted by True and
False.

Sequence An ordered collection of similar or


different data types. The built-in
Sequence data types in Python are
– String, List, and Tuple.

A collection of one or more characters put in


String single, double or triple quotes.

Examples: ‘Hello’, "Hello", "'Hello'", """Hello"""

An ordered collection of one or more data items,


List not necessarily of the same type, put in square
brackets.

Examples: [1,"Ravi",75.50, True]


An ordered collection of one or more data items,
Tuple not necessarily of the same type put in
parentheses. The contents of a tuple cannot be
modified – it is immutable - after the tuple is
created.

Examples: (1,"Ravi", 75.50, True)

Note: Refer to the Helper Text to learn more


about mutability.

An unordered collection of data in key:value pair


Dictionary form. Collection of such pairs is enclosed in curly
brackets.

Example: {1:"Superman", 2:"Wonder Woman",


3:"Thor", 4: "Hulk", 5:"Black Widow"}
