I’m beginning to learn about Python and am starting to understand the importance between integers and floats and how they are different objects. For example, the integer 1 is not the same as the float 1.0. I am confused because Python does not do this for complex numbers.

If I define a complex number as z1 = 1.0 + 2.0j and print it, the output will be (1+2j). I would have assumed that the output will be (1.0+2.0j), but this is not the case. Furthermore, when I define another complex number z2 = 1 + 2j and test whether these two variables reference the same object, they do. So what is going on here?
