Python provides the following main types of operators:

• Arithmetic operators: +, -, *, /, //, %, **
• Comparison operators: ==, !=, >, <, >=, <=
• Assignment operators: =, +=, -=, *=, /=, //=, %=, **=
• Logical operators: and, or, not
• Identity operators: is, is not
• Membership operators: in, not in
• Bitwise operators: &, |, ^, ~, <<, >>

Each category performs a specific type of operation, such as calculations, comparisons, condition checking, or bit manipulation.
