The print() function prints the given object to the standard output device (screen) or to the text stream file. Syntax of print()
print(*objects, sep=' ', end='\n', file=sys.stdout, flush=False)
where
- objects – object to the printed. * indicates that there may be more than one object
- sep – objects are separated by sep. Default value: ‘ ‘

Example
a = 5
b = a
# Two objects are passed
print("a =", a)
# Three objects are passed
print('a =', a, '= b')
# Separator and end parameters
print("a =", a, sep='00000', end='\n\n\n')
print("a =", a, sep='0', end='')
# With file parameter
sourceFile = open('print.txt', 'w')
