http://www.dictionary.com/browse/input http://www.dictionary.com/browse/output Does that answer your question about "input and output"? > Thanks a lot ... > >>>> type(3) > <class 'int'> >>>> type(3.145) > <class 'float'> >>>> type("Hi there") > <class 'str'> >>>> type(True) > <class 'bool'> I don't understand why you are showing this. What part don't you understand? The number 3 is an int (short for integer); that is the type of value it is. 5 is also an int, and 0, and 9253, and -73. They are all integers. 3.145 is a float (short for "floating point number"). "Hi there" is a str (short for string). True is a bool (short for Boolean value, which is a technical term for special True/False values). Perhaps if you can ask a more clear question, I can give a more clear answer. -- Steve “Cheer up,” they said, “things could be worse.” So I cheered up, and sure enough, things got worse. -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
