1.3.1 Using print()

The print() function is used to display output in Python.
It is commonly used to show results, debug programs, and communicate information to users.


Basic Output

The simplest use of print() is to display text or values.

print() can output:

  • Text strings
  • Numbers
  • Variable values

Multiple values can be printed in a single call, separated by commas.


Output Formatting Basics

By default:

  • Values are separated by spaces
  • Output ends with a newline

These default behaviors make print() suitable for most basic output needs.


Common Use Cases

  • Displaying calculation results
  • Showing program status messages
  • Debugging variables during development

print() is one of the most frequently used functions when learning and debugging Python.
