 What's the difference between / and / in python?

In Python, the difference between // and // is mainly in the type of division they represent:

1. / denotes floating-point number division, which returns floating-point results. For example: 3/2 = 1.5.

2. // denotes integer division, which returns the largest integer greater than the result, i.e., the division result is rounded down. For example: 3//2 = 1.

It should be noted that before Python 2.2, / represented integer division, but for simplicity and clarity, // was added in Python 2.2 and later versions to represent integer division.
