A value is one of the basic things a program
works with, like a letter or a number.
Print Simple
For previous class we used the value “Hello
String World” and passed it through the print function

# initializing string

string = "Hello World"

print (string)

3
By default, python's print() function ends with a newline.
This function comes with a parameter called 'end.' The
default value of this parameter is '\n,' i.e., the new line

Print end character. You can end a print statement with any
character or string using this parameter.
command
Try this

print("Welcome to")

print("Welcome to",end=' ')

print("Georgian College",end='!')

print("Python",end='@')

Python Variables
In Python, variables are used to store data that can be referenced and manipulated during
program execution. A variable is essentially a name that is assigned to a value. Unlike many
other programming languages, Python variables do not require explicit declaration of type.
The type of the variable is inferred based on the value assigned.

Variables act as placeholders for data. They allow us to store and reuse values in our
program.

Python Data Types
In computer programming, data types specify the type of data that can be stored inside a variable.

Creating Strings
Strings can be created by enclosing
characters inside single quotes or double-
quotes.

Triple quotes can also be used in Python, but


are generally used to represent multi-line
strings.

16
Strings are indexed with each character
assigned a position (starting from 0).

Type Conversion

50
Implicit Type Conversion:

Implicit type conversion (also known as type coercion) is automatically done by Python when
converting one data type to another, typically from a smaller type to a larger type.

51
Explicit Type Conversion:
Explicit type conversion (also known as type casting) is done manually by the user using functions like
int(), float(), str(), etc.
