Python Data Type

Total 10 users rated. <<PreviousNext>> Introduction Type represents the kind of value and determines how the value can be used. All data values in Python are encapsulated in relevant object classes. To determine a variable's type in Python you can use the type() function. Numbers Numbers are created by numeric literals. Python has three distinct numeric types: integers, floating point numbers, and complex numbers. Mathematically, a complex number (generally used in engineering) is a number of the form A+Bi where i is the imaginary number. Boolean (bool) The simplest build-in type in Python is the bool type, it represent the truth values False and True. Strings In Python a string type object is a sequence (left-to- right order) of characters. Special characters in strings The backslash (\) character is used to introduce a special character. See the following statements on special characters. String indices and accessing string elements Tuples Lists.

Python Variable

Total 7 users rated. <<PreviousNext>> Introduction A variable is a memory location where a programmer can store a value. The value stored in a variable can be accessed or updated later. Python Variable Name Rules Must begin with a letter (a - z, A - B) or underscore (_) Other characters can be letters, numbers or _ Case Sensitive Can be any (reasonable) length There are some reserved words which you cannot use as a variable name because Python uses them for other things. Good Variable Name Choose meaningful name instead of short name. roll_no is better than rn. Python Syntax. Python Syntax has average rating 8 out of 10.

It's well-designed syntax and dynamic typing makes it an ideal language for scripting and rapid application development in many areas. History The name Python was selected from "Monty Python’s Flying Circus" which was a British sketch comedy series created by the comedy group Monty Python and broadcast by the BBC from 1969 to 1974. Python was created in the early 1990s by Guido van Rossum at the National Research Institute for Mathematics and Computer Science in Netherlands. Python was created as a successor of a language called ABC (All Basic Code) and released publicly in1991.

Between 1991 and 2001 there are several versions released, current stable release is 3.2.
