#  VARIABLES
#
#  A variable is a symbol that represents a quantity that may vary.
#
#  $identifier = value;

age = 25        # The value 25 is assigned to variable age



#  BASIC DATA TYPES
age = 25                                  # Integer
temperature = -3.82                       # Real number

has_car = True                            # Boolean (only two values: True or False)



#  ARITHMETIC OPERATIONS

z = x - y         # Subtraction.                                  Result: 3.
z = x * y         # Multiplication.                               Result: 10.
z = x / y         # Division.                                     Result: 2.5.

z = 50 - x * 6 / -0.5          #
z = (50 - x) * 6 / -0.5        # The order of operations is as in mathematics
z = (50 - x * 6) / -0.5        #

z = 2 * z + 3                  # The symbol = assigns a value to the variable



#  PRINT VARIABLES ON SCREEN

# You can print on screen strings and variables
print('I have bought', x, 'oranges and', y, 'lemons.')
