In a programming language, we have to work with various kinds of data items. Specific data item for a specific task. For this why data types are so important concepts in the programming language. Data items are being classification or categorization using data types.

In Python, when we assign a value to a variable the data type is automatically set.

Python has various built-in data types by default, like this :

We can categorize the data types of Python into two as follows:

1.Mutable Data Types :

A mutable data type can be changed after it is created.Like list, dict, set and user-defined classes.

2. Immutable Data Types :

Opposite of mutable data type, that means it can’t be changed after it is created. Like int, float, bool, string

We can also categorize Python data types into two according to data structures.

1. Primitive Data Types.

2. Non-Primitive Data Types.

Advanced or Non-Primitive data types derived from primitive data types.

I hope you understand today’s content easily.
