Python Casting
Specify a Variable Type
There may be times when you want to specify a type of variable. This can be done by broadcasting. Python is an object-oriented language, and as a result it uses classes to define data types, including its classics.
Therefore casting in python is done using the functions of a builder:
int()- create a whole number from a real number, float literal (by subtracting all decimals), or a literal character unit (giving the character unit represents the whole number)float()- create a floating number from a real integer, a real float or a real character unit (as long as the character unit represents a float or a whole number)str()- create a unit of characters in many types of data, including strings, whole numbers and floating words
Example
Integers
x = int(1) # x will be 1
y = int(2.8) # y will be 2
z = int("3") # z will be 3
Example
Floats
x = float(1) # x will be 1.0
y = float(2.8) # y will be 2.8
z = float("3") # z will be 3.0
w = float("4.2") # w will be 4.2
Example
Strings
x = str("s1") # x will be 's1'
y = str(2) # y will be '2'
z = str(3.0) # z will be '3.0'
