Python features a dynamic typing module, so a variable 'x' can change from int to string or list in a line of code. Python has control statements:
1) Pass
2) Control
3) Break
#continue statement passes control to next do, for or while statement in which it appears. #break statement terminates execution of nearest enclosing for/while statement. #pass is a null operation.
