4. Data Types¶
Every value has a type, and the built-in type function returns the type of the result of any expression.
One type we have encountered already is a built-in function. Python indicates that the type is a builtin_function_or_method; the distinction between a function and a method is not important at this stage.

This chapter will explore many useful types of data.
