Chapter 4. Python Objects

Chapter Topics

  • Python Objects

  • Built-in Types

  • Standard Type Operators

    • Value Comparison

    • Object Identity Comparison

    • Boolean

  • Standard Type Built-in Functions

  • Categorizing the Standard Types

  • Unsupported Types

We will now begin our journey to the core part of the language. First we will introduce what Python objects are, then discuss the most commonly-used built-in types. An introduction to the standard type operators and built-in functions comes next, followed by an insightful discussion of the different ways to categorize the standard types to gain a better understanding of how they work, and finally, we will conclude by describing some types that Python does not have (mostly as a benefit for those of you with experience with another high-level language).
