Numbers, Strings, and Dates

Computers and programming languages don’t process information the same way we do. It’s all about numbers, whether they are floats, integers or Boolean values. The computer needs to perform a number of calculations behind the scenes in order to interpret data and accomplish a certain task. At the same time, text is stored in the form of character strings and mathematical operations can be performed on them, too.

All of this can be understood by a computer because it operates based on numbers and calculations. But what about dates and time zones? Computers don’t care about this human concept without which our society and economy cannot function. Take note that by default Python doesn’t recognize date and time because there’s no datatype to represent these values. However, there is a module that understands this type of information. We just need to import it. We’ll get to that soon, but first, let’s talk more about numbers, functions, and mathematical operations.
