What Are Python Literals?
#11
(Sep-22-2020, 05:36 PM)Julie Wrote: What Are Python Literals?

Python literals are explained in documentation under The Python Language Reference > 6. Expressions > 6.2. Atoms > 6.2.2. Literals

Position of this document gives idea of literals 'place' in Python's taxonomy so if interested one can get broader picture including expressions, atoms, identifiers (names), literals, displays etc.

As for short definition have look at The Python Language Reference > 2. Lexical Analysis > 2.4 Literals:

Quote:Literals are notations for constant values of some built-in types.
