Python has this thing called interactive mode that makes it possible to 
discover answers even faster than looking in the docs (which can get out 
of date when things change, as they have for floats).

str(12345)
'12345'
repr(12345)
'12345'
str(1+1*j)
Traceback (most recent call last):
   File "<pyshell#3>", line 1, in <module>
     if True:
NameError: name 'j' is not defined
str(1+1j)
'(1+1j)'
repr(1+1j)
'(1+1j)'
str(.9999999999999999999999999999999)
'1.0'
str(0xff34)
'65332'
