4. Python data types#

Python has several data types:

  • Numbers

  • Strings

  • Lists

  • Dictionaries

  • Tuples

  • Sets

  • Boolean

These data types, in turn, can be classified by several criteria:

  • mutable (lists, dictionaries and sets)

  • immutable (integers, strings and tuples)

  • ordered (lists, tuples, strings and dictionaries)

  • unordered (sets)
