We don't need to use data types to declare variable

because it is dynamically typed so we can write a=10 to
assign an integer value in an integer variable.

Python are given below. 1. Int - Integer value can be any length such as integers
10, 2, 29, -20, -150 etc. Its value belongs to int
1. Numbers 2. Float - Float is used to store floating-point numbers
2. Sequence Type like 1.9, 9.902, 15.2, etc.
3. Boolean 3. Complex - A complex number contains an ordered

Python creates Number objects when a number is assigned to a In the case of string handling, the operator + is used to

The operator * is known as a repetition operator as the

Set multiply *
Python Set is the unordered collection of the data type. It is
iterable, mutable(can modify after creation), and has unique power **
elements. In set, the order of the elements is undefined; it may Integer Division /
return the changed sequence of the element. The set is created
by using a built-in function set(), or a sequence of elements is remainder %
passed in the curly braces and separated by the comma. It can
contain various types of values. Consider the following decorator @
example.
Binary left shift <<
1. # Creating Empty set Binary right shift >>
2. set1 = set()
3. set2 = {'James', 2, 3,'Python'} and &
4. #Printing Set value
or \
5. print(set2)
6. # Adding element to the set Binary Xor ^
7. set2.add(10)
8. print(set2) Binary ones complement ~
9. #Removing element from the set
10. set2.remove(2) Less than <
11. print(set2) Greater than >
12. Output:
13. {3, 'Python', 'James', 2} Less than or equal to <=
14. {'Python', 'James', 3, 2, 10}
15. {'Python', 'James', 3, 10} Greater than or equal to >=

Check equality ==

Python Expressions: Check not equal !=

Expressions are representations of value. They are different from
statement in the fact that statements do something while
expressions are representation of value. For example any string is
also an expressions since it represents the value of the string as Types of python expressions:
well.
Python has some advanced constructs through which you can
represent values and hence these constructs are also called List comprehension
expressions. The syntax for list comprehension is shown below:

 Unit 1 Notes

For example, the following code will get all the number within 10
and put them in a list.
>>> [x for x in range(10)]
[0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9]

Dictionary comprehension
This is the same as list comprehension but will use curly braces:
{ k, v for k in iterable }

For example, the following code will get all the numbers within 5
as the keys and will keep the corresponding squares of those
numbers as the values.
>>> {x:x**2 for x in range(5)}
{0: 0, 1: 1, 2: 4, 3: 9, 4: 16}

Generator expression
The syntax for generator expression is shown below:
( compute(var) for var in iterable )

For example, the following code will initialize a generator object

that returns the values within 10 when the object is called.
>>> (x for x in range(10))
<generator object <genexpr> at 0x7fec47aee870>
>>> list(x for x in range(10))
[0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9]

Conditional Expressions
You can use the following construct for one-liner conditions:
true_value if Condition else false_value

Example:
>>> x = "1" if True else "2"
>>> x
'1'
