| Data Type  | Typical Maximum Bits       | Notes                                           |
|------------|----------------------------|-------------------------------------------------|
| int        | Variable (system-dependent)| Limited by available memory, can be very large. |
| float      | 64                         | Double-precision float, IEEE 754 standard.      |
| complex    | 2x64                       | Consists of two 64-bit floats.                  |
| bool       | 8                          | Typically stored as a byte.                     |
| str        | Variable (system-dependent)| Dependent on length and encoding.               |
| bytes      | Variable (system-dependent)| Dependent on the length of the sequence.        |
| bytearray  | Variable (system-dependent)| Similar to bytes, mutable version.              |
| list       | Variable (system-dependent)| Dependent on the number and types of elements.  |
| tuple      | Variable (system-dependent)| Dependent on the number and types of elements.  |
| set        | Variable (system-dependent)| Dependent on the number of elements.            |
| dict       | Variable (system-dependent)| Dependent on the number of key-value pairs.     |
| NoneType   | N/A                        | Represents no value, no associated bit size.    |
