What is data type in python programming?

In python programming, a data type is an attribute of data which tells the compiler or interpreter how the programmer intends to use the data.

In python programming, data type is an important concept.

Variables can store data of different types, and different types can do different things.

Python has the following data types built-in by default, in these categories:

Text Type: str
Numeric Types:int, float, complex
Sequence Types:list, tuple, range
Mapping Type:dict
Set Types: set, frozenset
Boolean Type:bool
Binary Types:bytes, bytearray, memoryview

Getting the Data Type
You can get the data type of any object by using the type() function:

Example
Print the data type of the variable x:

Setting the Data Type
In Python, the data type is set when you assign a value to a variable:

Python Numbers
There are three numeric types in Python:

1.int
2.float
3.complex

Variables of numeric types are created when you assign a value to them:

Int
Int, or integer, is a whole number, positive or negative, without decimals, of unlimited length.

Float
Float, or "floating point number" is a number, positive or negative, containing one or more decimals.

Complex
Complex numbers are written with a "j" as the imaginary part:
