Lesson 1️⃣: Printing

Bitesize Key points from this lesson

  1. All programming languages have a command to print text to the screen.
  2. In Python, we use the print() function to display text.
  3. The print() function has parenthesis. What needs to be diplayed is placed inside the parenthesis.
  4. Text to be displayed is placed inside quotation marks. This is known as a string datatype.
  5. We can use either single quotes ' or double quotes " to create a string.
  6. If we want to display a string over multiple lines, we can use triple quotes ''' or """.
