When I run the following code, I get the following output:

Next, I try to compare the data-type of 5 with the earlier output, I
get no output:
if type(5) == "<class 'int'>":
print("Integer")
Why isn't this working? Advance thanks for your time.

print(isinstance(5,int))
True
isinstance(object, classinfo)
Return true if the object argument is an instance of the classinfo
argument, or of a (direct, indirect or virtual) subclass thereof. If
object is not an object of the given type, the function always returns
false. If classinfo is a tuple of type objects (or recursively, other
such tuples), return true if object is an instance of any of the types.
If classinfo is not a type or tuple of types and such tuples, a
TypeError exception is raised.
After thinking about this, (i am prettry new to python), i was doing this:
>>> print(type(5),type(int),type(5)==type(int),type(5)==int)
<class 'int'> <class 'type'> False True
Can someone explain why type(5)==int evaluates to True ?
