Data Types in Python

There are three main data types in Python: numbers, strings, and booleans.

 

Numbers - This includes integers and floating-point numbers.

Strings - This includes textual data.

Booleans - This includes True and False values.

Converting Data Types in Python

Python has several built-in functions for converting the types of our variables. For example, we have the int() function for converting a value to an integer:

 

birth_year = "1982"age = 2020 - int(birth_year)print("You are " + str(age) + " years old.")

In the above example, we use the int() function to convert the birth_year string to an integer so we can subtract it from the current year.

 

We also have the float() function for converting a value to a float:

 

num = "10.5"float_num = float(num)print(float_num)

In the above example, we use the float() function to convert the num string to a floating point number.
