Python Numbers

There are three main numeric types in Python - integers, floats, and complexes. Integers do not contain decimals, floats do contain decimals and can be in scientific notation, and complexes contain real and imaginary parts. Numbers can be converted between types using functions like int(), float(), and complex(). The random module can also be used to generate random numbers within a given range.

Python Numbers

Python Numbers
There are three numeric types in Python:

● int
● float
● complex

Variables of numeric types are created when you assign a value to them:

Example

x = 1 # int

y = 2.8 # float

z = 1j # complex
To verify the type of any object in Python, use the type() function:

Example
print(type(x))
print(type(y))
print(type(z))
Int
Int, or integer, is a whole number, positive or negative, without decimals, of unlimited length.

Example
Integers:

x = 1
y = 35656222554887711
z = -3255522

print(type(x))
print(type(y))
print(type(z))
Float
Float, or "floating point number" is a number, positive or negative, containing one or more decimals.

Example
Floats:

x = 1.10
y = 1.0
z = -35.59

print(type(x))
print(type(y))
print(type(z))
Float can also be scientific numbers with an "e" to indicate the power of 10.

Example
Floats:

x = 35e3
y = 12E4
z = -87.7e100

print(type(x))
print(type(y))
print(type(z))
Complex
Complex numbers are written with a "j" as the imaginary part:

Example
Complex:

x = 3+5j
y = 5j
z = -5j

print(type(x))
print(type(y))
print(type(z))
Type Conversion
You can convert from one type to another with the int(), float(), and complex() methods:

Example
Convert from one type to another:

x = 1 # int

y = 2.8 # float

z = 1j # complex
#convert from int to float:
a = float(x)
#convert from float to int:
b = int(y)
#convert from int to complex:
c = complex(x)
#To print

print(a)

print(b)

print(c)

#To validate and check the type

print(type(a))

print(type(b))

print(type(c))

Note: You cannot convert complex numbers into another number type.
Random Number
Python does not have a random() function to make a random number, but Python has a built-in module called random that can be used to make random numbers:

Example

Import the random module, and display a random number between 1 and 9:

import random

print(random.randrange(1, 10))
Activity: Python Numbers Conversion
a_num = 9481
b_num = 35.9
c_num = 5j
d_num = 16.26
e_num = 51

1. Convert a_num to complex. Print and check the type.


2. Convert a_num to float. Print and check the type.
3. Convert b_num to int. Print and check the type.
4. Convert b_num to complex. Print and check the type.
5. Convert d_num to int. Print and check the type.
6. Convert e_num to complex. Print and check the type.
7. Convert e_num to float. Print and check the type.
8. Print a random number from 6-10.
9. Print a random number from 50 -100
10.Print a random number from 101 -120
