Exercise 3.6.9: 24 vs. "24"5 points Using the correct data type is important when math operators are involved.

Strings can also be “added” together. This is called concatenation.

A substring is part of an existing string. When strings are concatenated, each separate substring is combined to create a new string. Let’s check this out!

In this exercise, change the variables in the second code segment to strings and run the code. What do you notice?

# Code Segment One - Data Type - numbers
num_result = 24 + 24
print(num_result)

# Code Segment Two - Data Type - Strings
# Change both numbers to strings and run code
# Change only one number to a string and run code. What happens?
string_result = 24 + 24
print(string_result)
