Python Numeric data type
- The power of a programming language depends, among other things, on the range of different types of data it can handle.
-
There are three numeric types in Python:
- int
- floating-point
- complex
- Boolean
Example
x = 5 # int
y = 3.8 # float
z = 5j # complex
int
- Using the Int, or integer, is a whole number, positive or negative, without decimals, of unlimited length.
Example
x = 11
y = 39574585744887711
z = -74855522
print(type(x))
print(type(y))
print(type(z))
Float
- A float, or “floating-point number” is a number, positive or negative, containing one or more decimals.
Example
x = 2.10
y = 3.0
z = -55.59
print(type(x))
print(type(y))
print(type(z))
Complex
- Complex numbers are the imaginary part.
- it can write with a “j” in python.
Example
x = 4+5j
y = 6j
z = -9j
print(type(x))
print(type(y))
print(type(z))
Find the Data Type
type() function: using this function get the data type of any object or variable.
Example
y = 15
print(type(y))
Example
x = 1
y = 2.8
z = 1j
print(type(x))
print(type(y))
print(type(z))
"""Output
<class 'int'>
<class 'float'>
<class 'complex'>
"""
Boolean
- Boolean data types return the always True or False results
Example
Use of boolean data types
a=5
b=10
print(a>b)
Output
False
