Lesson P.2 - Variables & Data types
Learn about how variables store and use different data types in this introduction to Variables and Data Types. Two data types we will use here are Strings and Numbers (integers and floats).
Objectives:
define and assign values to variables
identify basic data types
practice defining, assigning, and using variables of different data types

A string is simply a series of characters. Anything inside quotes is considered a string in Python. You can use either single or double quotes to create strings.
Number Variables
Number Variables
Numbers are used quite often in programming to keep score in games, represent data in visualizations, store information and so on. Python handles numbers differently depending upon how they are being used. Two basic number data types are Integers and Floats.
