Python; Print Command- PART 3

 by

   The most common instruction given to a computer in any programming language is output some data either to user or console etc.

Output

Any type of of information we get from the computer is called output and y'll know it. This response you will get from a computer. An instruction is a unit of work for a computer.

Values

A value is a unit or a multiple units of information, like numbers, strings , character, character of numbers or etc.

Print function

If we need the computer to show any out, we use print function. Correct way of using Print function 
is by typing print(arguments). We need to pass a argument that computer should display.

Arguments

When a value is used in a function call, it is called an argument. Arguments are enclosed in parentheses after the function name.

i.e <function_name>(<argument>)
i.e
print("hello world")

In the above statement print is the function name and "hello world" is the argument. There can be function with one arguments or with multiple argument. 
*more details in future sessions.

As shown above, it tells the computer to perform the print function with the value "hello world". Every computer performs the print function by displaying the given value as output.

Feel free to comment down your queries.

Thank You!

by    Aneesh R. Prabhu Introducing Python. P ython is an interpreted, high-level and general-purpose programming language. Created by Guido van Rossum and first released in 1991.  Python's simple, easy to learn syntax emphasizes readability and therefore reduces the cost of program maintenance. Python supports modules and packages, which encourages program modularity and code reuse. The Python interpreter and the extensive standard library are available in source or binary form without charge for all major platforms, and can be freely distributed. What makes Python special? Often, programmers fall in love with Python because of the increased productivity it provides. Since there is no compilation step, the edit-test-debug cycle is incredibly fast. Debugging Python programs is easy: a bug or bad input will never cause a segmentation fault. Instead, when the interpreter discovers an error, it raises an exception. When the program doesn't catch the exception, the interpreter...

Galileo Galilei discovered this planet using a primitive telescope during September of 1610. He became the first man to observe the planet using a telescope. Nowadays, millions observe it during the last week of July of every year when it is closest to our Earth, many countries are planning unmanned space missions to Mars and a few countries are even planning to colonise Mars.
