Python Tutorial 2.2 - Data Types & Variables

Welcome to the "Data Types & Variables" tutorial!

Overview

In this lesson, you will learn about the various data types available in Python and how to use variables to store data.

Data Types

• Numbers:
  Integers (int) and floating-point numbers (float).
• Strings:
  Text enclosed in quotes ("hello" or 'world').
• Booleans:
  True or False values for logic.
• Other Types:
  Lists, tuples, dictionaries, and sets are covered in later sections.

Variables

• Assigning Values:
  Variables are dynamically typed in Python. For example:

    age = 30
    name = "Alice"
    pi = 3.14
  

• Type Flexibility:
  You can reassign variables to different data types if needed.

Key Takeaways

• Understand the different data types in Python.
• Learn to assign and work with variables.
• Recognize Python's dynamic typing system.

Happy coding!
