NUMERIC DATA TYPES
Python uses following three types of numeric data types. type() function in Python is used to get data type of object.
| Data Type | Examples | Output | Description |
| int | x=1 print(type(x)) | <class ‘int’> | Int, or integer, is a whole number, positive or negative, without decimals, of unlimited length. |
| float | x = 3.5 print(type(x)) | <class ‘float’> | floating point number is a number, positive or negative, containing one or more decimals. |
| complex | x = 1j print(type(x)) | <class ‘complex’> | Complex numbers are written with a “j” as the imaginary part. |
NUMERIC DATA TYPES
Type Conversion in Python
We can convert from one type to another with the int(), float(), and complex() functions as shown below:
| int to float conversion in Python |
| x=1 a=float(x) print(a) print(type(a)) |
int to float conversion in Python
| Output |
| 1.0 <class ‘float’> |

| float to int conversion in Python |
| x=3.5 a=int(x) print(a) print(type(a)) |
float to int conversion in Python
| Output |
| 3 <class ‘int’> |

| int to complex conversion in Python |
| x=1 a=complex(x) print(a) print(type(a)) |
int to complex conversion in Python
| Output |
| (1+0j) <class ‘complex’> |

Random Number in Python
Python uses a built-in module called random that can be used to make random numbers as shown below:
| Example of Random Number generation in Python |
| import random print(random.randrange(1, 5)) |
import random will import random module.
random.randrange(1, 5) function will generate random number between 1 and 4.
Output will be any random number-
