In Python, the main data types are divided into several categories:

  • Numeric types:

    • int — integers, for example, 42
    • float — floating-point numbers, for example, 3.14
    • complex — complex numbers, for example, 1+2j
  • Boolean type:

    • bool — takes values True or False
  • Sequences:

    • str — strings, for example, "hello"
    • list — mutable lists, for example, [1, 2, 3]
    • tuple — immutable tuples, for example, (1, 2, 3)
  • Sets:

    • set — mutable set of unique elements
    • frozenset — immutable set
  • Dictionaries:

    • dict — collection of key-value pairs
  • Special type:

    • NoneType — the type of the None object, which indicates the absence of a value

All objects in Python have a type, and the type determines what operations can be performed with the object. Types can be mutable (e.g., lists) and immutable (e.g., strings, tuples).
