Variable In Python

Introduction to Variables in Python

Variables are used to store data values in


Python.

They have a name and a value associated


with them.

Variables can hold different types of data,


such as numbers, strings, or boolean
values.

1
Naming Variables

Variable names can contain letters,


numbers, and underscores.

They cannot start with a number or


contain special characters.

Python is case-sensitive, so "myvar" and


"myVar" are different variables.

2
Assigning Values to Variables

Values are assigned to variables using the


equals sign (=).

Example: myvar = 10

The value can be changed by assigning a


new value to the same variable.

3
Variable Types

Python has several built-in variable types,


including:
- Integer: whole numbers without
decimal points.
- Float: numbers with decimal points.
- String: sequence of characters enclosed
in quotes.
- Boolean: True or False values.

Variable Operations

Variables can be used in mathematical


operations.

Example: x = 5, y = 3. Addition: x + y = 8.

String concatenation is also possible using


the plus (+) operator.

5
Variable Scope

Variables have a scope, which defines


their accessibility.

Global variables can be accessed from


anywhere in the code.

Local variables are defined inside


functions and can only be accessed within
the function.

6
Best Practices for Variable Names

Use descriptive names that reflect the


purpose of the variable.

Avoid using single-letter names, except


for simple loop counters.

Use lowercase letters for variable names.

7
Constants

Constants are variables whose values


remain the same throughout the program.

Conventionally, constant names are


written in uppercase.

Python does not have a built-in constant


type, but the convention is to avoid
changing their values.

8
Variable Interpolation

Variables can be inserted into strings using


string interpolation.

Example: name = "John". Greeting =


f"Hello, {name}!"

The f in front of the string indicates that it


is a formatted string.

9
Summary

Variables are used to store data values in


Python.

They have a name and a value associated


with them.

Python supports various types of variables


and allows mathematical and string
operations on them.
