They allow us to store groups of related data under a single variable name and access them quickly and logically. There are many types of data structures available under Python and each will be explained in the following sections. Data Structure Example Let’s say that we need to keep a list of color names that are available to the end user and that list has the following values: Red, Orange, Yellow, Green, Blue, Purple We could simply create a number of distinct and separate variables to hold each value.
