Python Type Conversion

Python Type Conversion

Type Conversion is a process of converting value of one datatype to another datatype.

There could be many scenarios where we need to convert data from type to another. For example, consider a simple use case of where we need to read two numbers from user and perform addition. We can read only string from user via console. And, we need to convert this string value to an integer of floating-point number.

The following list of tutorials cover use-cases of converting values from one datatype to another.
