Data handling
Most of the computer programming

language support data type,
variables,operator and expression like
fundamentals.Python also support these.
Data Types
Data Type specifies which type of value a
variable can store. type() function is used
to determine a variable's type in Python.

Data Types In Python

1. Number
2. String
3. Boolean
4. List
5. Tuple
6. Set
7. Dictionary

Data type continue
Mutable and Immutable Data type
A mutable data type can change its state or contents and
immutable data type cannot.
Mutable data type:
list, dict, set, byte array
Immutable data type:
int, float, complex, string, tuple, frozen set [note: immutable
version of set], bytes
Mutability can be checked with id() method.

x=10
print(id(x))
x=20
print(id(x))
#id of both print statement is different as integer is immutable
Data type continue
1. Number In Python
It is used to store numeric values
Python has three numeric types:

1. Integers
2. Floating point numbers
3. Complex numbers.

Data type continue
1. Integers
Integers or int are positive or negative
numbers with no decimal point. Integers in
Python 3 are of unlimited size.
e.g.
a= 100
b= -100
c= 1*20
print(a)
print(b)
print(c)
Output :-
100
-100
200
Data type continue
Type Conversion of Integer
int() function converts any data type to integer.
e.g.
a = "101" # string
b=int(a) # converts string data type to integer.
c=int(122.4) # converts float data type to integer.
print(b)
print(c)Run Code
Output :-
101
122
Data type continue
2. Floating point numbers
It is a positive or negative real numbers
with a decimal point.
e.g.
a = 101.2
b = -101.4
c = 111.23
d = 2.3*3
print(a)
print(b)
print(c)
print(d)Run Code
Output :-
101.2
-101.4
111.23
6.8999999999999995

Data type continue
Type Conversion of Floating point numbers

float() function converts any data type to floating point
number.
e.g.
a='301.4' #string
b=float(a) #converts string data type to floating point number.
c=float(121) #converts integer data type to floating point number.
print(b)
print(c)Run Code
Output :-
301.4
121.0

Data type continue
3. Complex numbers
Complex numbers are combination of a real
and imaginary part.Complex numbers are in the
form of X+Yj, where X is a real part and Y is
imaginary part.
e.g.
a = complex(5) # convert 5 to a real part val and zero imaginary part
print(a)
b=complex(101,23) #convert 101 with real part and 23 as imaginary part
print(b)Run Code
Output :-
(5+0j)
(101+23j)

Data type continue
2. String In Python
A string is a sequence of characters. In python we can
create string using single (' ') or double quotes (" ").Both
are same in python.
e.g.
str='computer science'
print('str-', str) # print string
print('str[0]-', str[0]) # print first char 'h'
print('str[1:3]-', str[1:3]) # print string from postion 1 to 3 'ell'
print('str[3:]-', str[3:]) # print string staring from 3rd char 'llo world'
print('str *2-', str *2 ) # print string two times
print("str +'yes'-", str +'yes') # concatenated string
Output
str- computer science
str[0]- c
str[1:3]- om
str[3:]- puter science
str *2- computer sciencecomputer science
str +'yes'- computer scienceyes
Data type continue
Iterating through string
e.g.
str='comp sc'
for i in str:
print(i)
Output
c
o
m
p
s
c

Data type continue
3. Boolean In Python
It is used to store two possible values either true or
false
e.g.
str="comp sc"
boo=str.isupper() # test if string contains upper case
print(boo)
Output
False

Data type continue
4.List In Python
List are collections of items and each item has its own
index value.
5. Tuple In Python
List and tuple, objects mean you cannot modify the
contents of a tuple once it is assigneboth are same except ,a
list is mutable python objects and tuple is immutable
Python objects. Immutable Python d.
e.g. of list
list =[6,9] e.g. of tuple
list[0]=55 tup=(66,99)
print(list[0]) Tup[0]=3 # error message will be displayed
print(list[1]) print(tup[0])
print(tup[1])
OUTPUT
55
9
Data type continue
6. Set In Python
It is an unordered collection of unique and
immutable (which cannot be modified)items.
e.g.
set1={11,22,33,22}
print(set1)
Output
{33, 11, 22}

Data type continue
7. Dictionary In Python
It is an unordered collection of items and each
item consist of a key and a value.
e.g.
dict = {'Subject': 'comp sc', 'class': '11'}
print(dict)
print ("Subject : ", dict['Subject'])
print ("class : ", dict.get('class'))
Output
{'Subject': 'comp sc', 'class': '11'}
Subject : comp sc
class : 11
Type
conversion
The process of converting the value of one data type
(integer, string, float, etc.) to another data type is
called type conversion.
Python has two types of type conversion.
Implicit Type Conversion
Explicit Type Conversion
Implicit Type Conversion:

In Implicit type conversion, Python automatically converts one data type to another
data type. This process doesn't need any user involvement.
e.g.
num_int = 12 OUTPUT
('datatype of num_int:', <type 'int'>)
num_flo = 10.23 ('datatype of num_flo:', <type 'float'>)
num_new = num_int + num_flo ('Value of num_new:', 22.23)
print("datatype of num_int:",type(num_int)) ('datatype of num_new:', <type 'float'>)
print("datatype of num_flo:",type(num_flo))
print("Value of num_new:",num_new)
print("datatype of num_new:",type(num_new))

Type conversion
Explicit Type Conversion:
In Explicit Type Conversion, users convert the data type of an object to
required data type. We use the predefined functions like int(),float(),str() etc.
e.g.
num_int = 12
num_str = "45"
print("Data type of num_int:",type(num_int))
print("Data type of num_str before Type Casting:",type(num_str))
num_str = int(num_str)
print("Data type of num_str after Type Casting:",type(num_str))
num_sum = num_int + num_str
print("Sum of num_int and num_str:",num_sum)
print("Data type of the sum:",type(num_sum))
OUTPUT
('Data type of num_int:', <type 'int'>)
('Data type of num_str before Type Casting:', <type 'str'>)
('Data type of num_str after Type Casting:', <type 'int'>)
('Sum of num_int and num_str:', 57)
('Data type of the sum:', <type 'int'>)
