python mainly provides the three built-in numeric data types:
- Integer(int)
- Floating-point number(float)
- Complex number(complex)
- Integer(int): An integer is an whole numbers that does not contain a decimal point.
Integers can be:
- positive
- Negative
- zero
python integers can also represent very large numbers, limited mainly by the available memory .
2.Floating-Point(float): A float represents a number containing a decimal point. floating values are useful when need to represent values that are not the whole numbers.
3.Complex(complex): A complex number contains two parts
- Real part
- Imaginary part
python will represents the imaginary part by using the j this is about the complex numbers.
CONCLUSION:
In which numeric data types are one of the fundamental concepts in python programming. The three main numeric types- will allow the programmers to work with the different kinds of numerical values.
