Python Number (digital)

Python Number data type used to store values.

It is not allowed to change the data type, which means that if you change the value of the Number data type, will be re-allocated memory space.

The following examples are Number objects will be created when the variable assignment:

var1 = 1
var2 = 10

You can also use the del statement to remove some of the Number object references.

del statement syntax is:

del var1[,var2[,var3[....,varN]]]]

You can delete single or multiple objects by using the del statement, for example:

del var
del var_a, var_b

Python supports four different types of values:

  • Integer (Int) - often referred to is an integer or an integer is a positive or negative integer, with no decimal point.
  • Long integer (long integers) - unlimited size integers, the integer last is an uppercase or lowercase L.
  • Float (floating point real values) - float by the integer part and the fractional part, floats can also be expressed (2.5e2 = 2.5 x 10 2 = 250) using scientific notation
  • Complex ((complex numbers)) - complex by the real and imaginary parts, you can use a + bj, or complex (a, b) that the real part and an imaginary part b is a floating-point type.
int long float complex

0x69 -4721885298529L 70.2-E12 4.53e-7j
  • You can also use a long integer lowercase "L", but it is recommended that you use an uppercase "L", to avoid the number "1" confusion. Python uses "L" to display the long integer.
  • Python also supports complex numbers, complex numbers by the real and imaginary parts, you can use a + bj, or complex (a, b) that the real part and an imaginary part b is a floating-point

Python random number functions

Random number can be used in mathematics, gaming, security and other fields, it is also frequently embedded into the algorithm to improve the efficiency and increase the security of the program.

Python random number functions include the following common:

function description
choice (seq) From the sequence of elements in a randomly selected element, such as random.choice (range (10)), from 0-9 in a randomly selected integer.
randrange ([start,] stop [ , step]) To get a random number from within the specified range specified increments base collection, base defaults to 1
random () Randomly generated under a real number in [0,1) range.
seed ([x]) Changing the random number generator seed seed. If you do not understand the principle, you do not have to set special seed, Python will help you choose the seed.
