Output Variables
The Python print()
function is often used to output variables.
Example
x = "Python is awesome"
print(x)
In the print()
function, you output multiple variables, separated by a comma:
Example
x = "Python"
y = "is"
z = "awesome"
print(x, y, z)
You can also use the +
operator to output multiple variables:
Example
x = "Python "
y = "is "
z = "awesome"
print(x + y + z)
Notice the space character after "Python "
and "is "
, without them the result would be “Pythonisawesome”.
For numbers, the +
character works as a mathematical operator:
Example
x = 5
y = 10
print(x + y)
In the print()
function, when you try to combine a string and a number with the +
operator, Python will give you an error:
Example
x = 5 y = "John" print(x + y)
The best way to output multiple variables in the print()
function is to separate them with commas, which even support different data types:
Example
x = 5
y = "John"
print(x, y)
