Variables & Types

Python figures out the type for you, but you should still know what you're holding.

The basics

• int — whole numbers (27)
• float — decimals (1.78)
• str — text ("Ada")
• bool — True or False

type(x).__name__ tells you what type a value is.

Try it

1. Add a city variable and print it.
2. What happens if you add age + height? Does the type change?
