Python Numbers

Numerical data types in Python are categorized into three types:

int

Integers are positive or negative whole numbers without decimal points.

Example:

x = 24
y = 100548

print(type(x))
print(type(y))

Output

<class 'int'>
<class 'int'>

Float

Floating-point numbers are real numbers containing a decimal point.

Example:

x = 2.34
y = 3.1

print(type(x))
print(type(y))

Output

<class 'float'>
<class 'float'>

complex

Complex numbers consist of real numbers and imaginary numbers.

Example:

x = 6j
y = -6j

print(type(x))
print(type(y))

Output

<class 'complex'>
<class 'complex'>
