Numbers & Math

Python handles integers and floats natively. The math module adds the rest.

Operators worth remembering

• + - * / — the usual
• // — floor division (drops the remainder)
• % — modulo (the remainder)
• ** — exponent

Built-ins

abs(), round(), min(), max(), sum([...]).

Try it

1. Compute compound interest: 1000 * (1.07 ** 10).
2. Use math.log(1024, 2) — guess the answer first.
