The video tutorial introduces the concept of type checking in Python using the isinstance function. It explains how to verify if a data value belongs to a specific type, which is useful when dealing with variables whose values are not directly assigned by the programmer. The tutorial provides examples of checking integer, float, and complex types. It also covers the power function, which calculates the power of a number and can take three arguments to return the remainder. The video concludes with a preview of the next topic, which involves taking user input.

Describe how the power function can be used with three arguments in Python.

What is the result of computing 2 raised to the power of 4 and then taking the remainder by 7?

In the context of the video, what is the significance of built-in functions in Python?
