How to Determine the Type of a Python Variable?
You can determine the type of a Python variable using the built-in function type(). For example:
x = 5
print(type(x)) # Output: <class 'int'>
y = 2.5
print(type(y)) # Output: <class 'float'>
z = "Hello, World!"
print(type(z)) # Output: <class 'str'>
a = [1, 2, 3]
print(type(a)) # Output: <class 'list'>
In each case, type() returns an object that represents the data type of the variable. The object is of type type, so you'll see the output as <class 'type'>.
