Python is a dynamically-typed language, which means that variable types are determined automatically based on the type of value assigned to them. In this blog, we will explore the concept of variables and assignments in Python.

Variables in Python 

    A variable in Python is a name that is used to refer to a value stored in memory. To create a variable in Python, you simply assign a value to a name using the equal sign (=). Here is an example.
    x = 5
    In this example, we have created a variable named "x" and assigned it the value 5. Python will automatically determine the type of the variable based on the value assigned to it. In this case, "x" is an integer.

Variable Names 

    Variable names in Python must begin with a letter or underscore, and can contain letters, digits, and underscores. They are case sensitive, meaning that "x" and "X" are different variables. It is good practice to use descriptive variable names that make it clear what the variable represents.

Assigning Multiple 

        Values Python allows you to assign multiple values to multiple variables in a single line of code. This is known as multiple assignment. Here is an example:
a, b, c = 1, 2, 3
        In this example, we have created three variables named "a", "b", and "c", and assigned them the values 1, 2, and 3, respectively. Note that the number of variables on the left-hand side of the equal sign must match the number of values on the right-hand side.

Swapping Values 

    Python allows you to swap the values of two variables without using a temporary variable. This can be done using multiple assignment. Here is an example:
    x = 5                                      
    y = 10                                     
    x, y = y, x
        In this example, we have swapped the values of "x" and "y" using multiple assignment. The first line assigns the value 5 to "x" and the value 10 to "y". The second line swaps the values of "x" and "y", so "x" now contains 10 and "y" contains 5.

Deleting Variables 

    Python allows you to delete a variable using the "del" keyword. Here is an example:
    x = 5                        
    del x
    In this example, we have created a variable named "x" and assigned it the value 5. The second line deletes the variable "x" from memory. Attempting to access the variable "x" after it has been deleted will result in a NameError.

    Conclusion In this blog, we have covered the basics of variables and assignments in Python. We have learned how to create variables, assign values to them, assign multiple values in a single line, swap values, and delete variables. Understanding these concepts is essential for working with Python code.
