Python Data Types Task 1
Python Data Types Task 1
This task involves understanding the basic data types in Python, which are crucial for
effective programming. Python provides several built-in data types, with lists, dictionaries,
and sets being among the most commonly used. Lists are ordered collections that allow
duplicate elements and can be modified. Dictionaries are unordered collections that store
key-value pairs, enabling efficient data retrieval based on keys. Sets are unordered
collections of unique elements, which are useful for operations that involve membership
testing and eliminating duplicate entries. This task will help solidify your understanding of
these data types and their basic operations.
Responsibilities:
1. Write a Python program to create a list, a dictionary, and a set, demonstrating each data
type's structure and characteristics.
2. Perform basic operations on the list, including adding, removing, and modifying elements,
to illustrate how lists can be manipulated.
3. Create a dictionary with at least three key-value pairs. Implement operations to add new
entries, remove existing entries, and modify values associated with specific keys.
4. Initialize a set and demonstrate adding elements, removing elements, and showing the
uniqueness of the set by trying to add duplicate values.
5. Include print statements to display the contents of the list, dictionary, and set after each
operation to observe the changes in real-time.
6. Comment the code thoroughly to explain the purpose of each operation, making it easier
for others to understand the functionalities of the program.
