Sequence Types str : Represents a sequence of characters (e.g., "hello" , 'Python' ). list : Represents an ordered, mutable collection of items (e.g., [1, 2, 3] , ['a', 'b', 'c'] ). tuple : Represents an ordered, immutable collection of items (e.g., (1, 2, 3) , ('a', 'b', 'c') ). 3. Mapping Type dict : Represents a collection of key-value pairs (e.g., {'name': 'Alice', 'age': 25} ). 4. Set Types...
