The first section of the tutorial isn't the right place to go into these details.  The point of the section is to have a basic introduction to the interactive prompt.  It is intensionally gentle and lightweight.

It isn't the purpose of the tutorial to document complete semantics and corner cases.  We leave that for the language reference or for coverage of specific types in the library reference.  See footnote (1) in the operator table at https://docs.python.org/3/library/stdtypes.html#numeric-types-int-float-complex .
