Summary

In this chapter, we discussed how to structure Python code, including how to span multiple lines, if necessary. Next, we covered the various data types that are included in Python: numbers, strings, lists, dictionaries, tuples, and sets. We also demonstrated how to use those data types to make simple scripts, and then talked about frequently used methods that provide more functionality to the data types. Finally, we saw how to import modules and how they affect the ability to interact with different parts of Python code.

In the next chapter, we will learn how to control logic flow within a program using if...else statements, looping, and dealing with error exceptions.
