4. Literals or Constants

• There are several types of data.

• The simplest ones are called literals or constants.

"""
Fahrenheit, 5, 32 and 9 are literal or constant values.
"""
F = float(input("Fahrenheit: "))
C = 5 * (F - 32) / 9
print("Celsius: %2.1f" % C)

• Remember that there are different types of data! for example: "32" is not the same as 32.

1 print(int("32") == 32) 2 print("32" == str(32)) 3 print(32 == "32") Edit this code line that just executed next line to execute << First < Prev Next > Last >> Step 1 of 3 Submit Python Tutor by Philip Guo Customize visualization (NEW!)
