02_Python_Datatypes

Introduction 👋

Data types specify the different sizes and values that can be stored in the variable. For example, Python stores numbers, strings, and a list of values using different data types.

Python is a dynamically typed language; therefore, we do not need to specify the variable’s type while declaring it. Whatever value we assign to the variable based on that data type will be automatically assigned. For example, name = 'Arthur' here Python will store the name variable as a str data type.

No matter what value is stored in a variable (object), a variable can be any type like int, float, str, list, set, tuple, dict, bool, etc.

How can I read this tutorial without an Internet connection? GIF

  1. Go here and click the big green ➞ Code button in the top right of the page, then click ➞ Download ZIP.

    Download ZIP

  2. Extract the ZIP and open it. Unfortunately I don't have any more specific instructions because how exactly this is done depends on which operating system you run.

  3. Launch ipython notebook from the folder which contains the notebooks. Open each one of them

    Kernel > Restart & Clear Output

This will clear all the outputs and now you can understand each statement and learn interactively.

If you have git and you know how to use it, you can also clone the repository instead of downloading a zip and extracting it. An advantage with doing it this way is that you don't need to download the whole tutorial again to get the latest version of it, all you need to do is to pull with git and run ipython notebook again.
