Variables can store data of different types, and different types can do different things.
Python has the following data types built-in by default, in these categories:
Text Type: str x = "Hello World"
Numeric Types: int, float, complex int: x = 20 float: x = 20.5 complex: x = 1j
Sequence Types: list, tuple, range x = ["apple", "banana", "cherry"] list x = ("apple", "banana", "cherry") tuple x = range(6) range Mapping Type: dict x = {"name" : "John", "age" : 36}
Set Types: set, frozenset x = {"apple", "banana", "cherry"}
Boolean Type:bool x = True
Binary Types: bytes, bytearray, memoryview x = b"Hello" x = bytearray(5) x = memoryview(bytes(5))
None Type: NoneType x = None
