eliminate-duplicate-datatype-instruction

This is a suggestion for eliminating overlapping and similar information about datatypes in this lesson. I suggest keeping discussion of datatypes very brief here, knowing that the 'data types and format' lesson will dive more in-depth into datatypes once learners have a better foundation of python.

 One of the most basic things we can do in Python is assign values to variables:
 
 ~~~
-text = "Data Carpentry"  # An example of a string
-number = 42  # An example of an integer
-pi_value = 3.1415  # An example of a float
+text = "Data Carpentry"  # An example of assigning a value to a new text variable,
+                         # also known as a string data type in Python
+number = 42              # An example of assigning a numeric value, or an integer data type
+pi_value = 3.1415        # An example of assigning a value that is a float data type

-The variable `text` is of type `str`, short for "string". Strings hold
-sequences of characters, which can be letters, numbers, punctuation
-or more exotic forms of text (even emoji!).

 We can also see the value of something using another built-in function, `print`:
