In this chapter, we learned about the concept of variables. We now know how to assign and update variables, and use them as function arguments. Next, we learned about Python's basic data types, which represent text, numerical, and logical values. Each data type behaves differently and works with different operators. We had to review each of them on their own and execute snippets of code. That included numerical operations, the order of computation, string methods, and logical operations. As a result, in the last section of this chapter, we were able to compute the answer to a specific problem and generate a simple textual report as a result.

In the next chapter, we'll start by reviewing our solution and discuss how we can make it better by introducing functions.
