    This lecture introduces basic data types in Python including integers, floating point numbers, and strings. It discusses integers and floats in more detail, covering their properties and limitations. Arithmetic operators from lowest to highest precedence are also covered. The lecture then discusses strings, how they are defined using quotation marks, and string operators. Finally, it defines variables as names that refer to values, how the assignment operator = is used, and the naming conventions for variables in Python.
