Basically, floating point numbers (aka floats) are rational numbers that have a decimal point Ex: 10.7, 4.6, 3.2 Integers are whole numbers Ex: 10, 9 , 4 The thing about it, if you enter a decimal (for example 10.7) but AS an integer, Python will discard(neglect) the decimal point/fraction and consider 10.7=10 Also, unless you state that the number you're writing is a float(by adding the decimal point or writing b4 the function <float>), Python will consider it as integer by default. Codes for example: x=float(10) print x --> it will print 10.0 y=int(12.5) print y --> it will print only 12 because by writing int you stated that it's a whole number not a decimal. I'm afraid I don't know what sign and 'unsign' data types are. Hope I helped ;)
