None type Python

  • by

Python NoneType is the type for the None object, which is an object that indicates no value. None is the return value of functions that “don’t return anything”.

Assign the value None to a variable:

x = None

Note: None is data its own (NoneType) and only None can be None.

Simple example code.

x = None

print(x)
print(type(x))

if x:
    print("Do you think None is True?")
elif x is False:
    print("Do you think None is False?")
else:
    print("None is not True, or False, None is just None...")

Null Vs None in Python

None – None is an instance of the NoneType object type. And it is a particular variable that has no objective value. 

Null – There is no null in Python, we can use None instead of null values.

print(type(None))
print(type(Null))
