Output with print()

The print function

print() writes text to the output. You can pass several values separated by commas.

print("Hello, world!")
print("x =", 42)

sep and end

Use sep to change the separator between values and end to change what appears at the end (default newline).

print("a", "b", "c", sep="-")
print("no newline", end="")
print(" same line")

f-strings

f-strings let you embed expressions inside curly braces for cleaner formatting.

name = "Ada"
age = 36
print(f"{name} is {age} years old")

Try it yourself

Run the example below. Edit it and see what changes.

print("Welcome to PyLearn!")
print("Score:", 100)
 

Common mistakes

• ⚠Forgetting parentheses: print "hi" is invalid in Python 3.
• ⚠Concatenating numbers with strings using +. Use a comma or f-string.
• ⚠Forgetting the f before the string in f-strings.
