Data Types

The modules described in this chapter provide a variety of specialized data types such as dates and times, fixed-type arrays, heap queues, double-ended queues, and enumerations.

Python also provides some built-in data types <bltin-types>, in particular, list, tuple, dict, frozendict, set, and frozenset. The str class is used to hold Unicode strings, and the bytes and bytearray classes are used to hold binary data.

The following modules are documented in this chapter:
