Python : Print() examples with parameters

Print

Nothing more is required to explain what does the print function does, it's name is itself self explanatory.

Print function is used to display /print messages into the screen.

Within python we can use ether pair of single inverted commas '  ' or double inverted "  "  within single brackets (  )  both gives the same result.

>>> print  ('Hello World')

Hello World

Print() with Parameters.

I'm adding some of the print function usage along with various parameters.

Print() with Sep

SEP commonly a short form of separator,  Separator between the arguments to print() function in Python is space by default (softspace feature) , which can be modified and can be made to any character, integer or string as per our choice.

Default behaviour of python with softspace.

>>> print('A','B','C')

A B C

#Trick to disable softspace using sep parameter

>>> print('A','B','C',sep='')

ABC

One more example.

>>> print('13','11','2018')

13 11 2018

#Trick to format a date

>>> print('13','11','2018', sep='-')

13-11-2018

Print() with End

End parameter along with print can be used to align data into a same single line along with required character,symbol or word.

Example:

>>> print('Welcome')

>>> print('to')

>>> print('cyberkeeda.com')

Output:

Welcome

 to

Cyberkeeda.com

Now, with help of end parameter, we can allign all these three different lines by one, along with extra characters too

>>> print('Welcome', end '  ')

>>> print('to', end '  ')

>>> print('cyberkeeda.com', end ' ! ')

Output:

Welcome to Cyberkeeda.com !

One more example ( SEP with END )

>>> print(10,20,30,sep=':', end='...')

>>> print(60,70,80,sep='-')

Output:

10:20:30...60-70-80

Print Formatted strings and Variables on the same line.

Before knowing anything, please note the below abbreviations.

%i==>  int

%d==> int

%f==>  float

%s==>  str

print("formatted String" %(variable list))

Examples.

>>> print("value is :%d" %(12))


value is  : 12

>>> print("My name is :%s and age is :%d" %('Cyberkeeda',23))


My name is : Cberkeeda and age is  : 23
