Python Tutorial for Beginners Part 2: Variables and Data Types

In the previous tutorial, we set up Python and wrote our first program. Now, let's learn how to store information using variables.

What are Variables?

Variables are containers for storing data values. In Python, you don't need to declare the type of a variable; it is determined automatically.

name = "Jemi"
age = 25
is_developer = True

Basic Data Types

1. String (str): Textual data, e.g., "Hello".
2. Integer (int): Whole numbers, e.g., 10.
3. Float (float): Decimal numbers, e.g., 10.5.
4. Boolean (bool): True or False.

Understanding these types is crucial for any programming task.
