Built-in data types in Python

Any data or information stored within a Python variable has a type. The type of data stored within a variable can be checked using the type function.

ython has several built-in data types for storing different types of information in variables. Following are at some commonly used data types:

1. Integer
2. Float
3. Boolean
4. None
5. String
6. List
7. Tuple
8. Dictionary

Integer, float, boolean, None and string are primitive data types because they represent a single value. Other data types like list, tuple and dictionary are often called data structures or containers because they hold multiple pieces of data together.

False = 0

True = 1
