How to Print a simple String in Python?

More often than not you require to Print strings in your coding construct.

Here is how to print statement in Python 3:

Example: 1

To print the Welcome to FutureCode, use the Python print statement as follows:

print ("Welcome to FutureCode")                                                                                       

Output:

Welcome to FutureCode

In Python 2, the same example will look like

print "Welcome to FutureCode"                                                             

Example 2:

If you want to print the name of five countries, you can write:

print("USA")
print("Canada")
print("Germany")
print("France")
print("Japan")

Output:

USA
Canada
Germany
France
Japan

How to print blank lines

Sometimes you need to print one blank line in your Python program. Following is an example to perform this task using Python print format.

Example:

Let us print 8 blank lines. You can type:

print (8 * "\n")                                                                                            

or:

print ("\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n")                                                                              

Here is the code

print ("Welcome to FutureCode")
print (8 * "\n")
print ("Welcome to FutureCode")

Output

Welcome to FutureCode








Welcome to FutureCode

Print end command

By default, the print function in Python ends with a newline. This function comes with a parameter called ‘end.’ The default value of this parameter is ‘\n,’ i.e., the new line character. You can end a print statement with any character or string using this parameter. This is available only in Python 3+

Example 1:

print ("Welcome to", end = ' ') 
print ("FutureCode", end = '!')

Output:

Welcome to FutureCode!

Example 2:

# ends the output with ‘@.’

print("Python" , end = '@')

Output:

Python@
