PYTHON DATA
TYPES
1
Built-in Data Types
• Every value has a datatype, and variables can hold values.
• Python has the following data types built-in by default.
2
Getting the Data Type
• You can get the data type of any object by using the type()
function:
• Print the data type of the variable x:
x = 5
print(type(x))
3
Setting the Data Type
• In Python, the data type is set when you assign a value to a
Example Data Type
variable:
x = "Hello World" str
x = 20 int
x = 20.5 float
x = 1j complex
x = ["apple", "banana", "cherry"] list
x = ("apple", "banana", "cherry") tuple
x = range(6) range
x = {"name" : “Ali", "age" : 36} dict
x = {"apple", "banana", "cherry"} set
x = frozenset({"apple", "banana", frozenset
"cherry"})
x = True bool
x = b"Hello" bytes
x = bytearray(5) bytearray
x = memoryview(bytes(5)) memoryview
x = None NoneType

Examples
x='Hello World!' x = ("apple", "banana", "cherry") x = True
print(type(x)) print(type(x)) print(type(x))
x = 20 x = range(6) x = b"Hello"
print(type(x)) print(type(x)) print(type(x))
x = 20.5 x = {"name" : "Ali", "age" : 36} x = bytearray(5)
print(type(x)) print(type(x)) print(type(x))
x = 1j x = {"apple", "banana", "cherry"} x = memoryview(bytes(5))
print(type(x)) print(type(x)) print(type(x))
x = ["apple", "banana", "cherry"] x = frozenset({"apple", "banana", x = None
"cherry"})
print(type(x)) print(type(x))
print(type(x))
