Is “print” required to show text strings?

In a sample it said: >>>”spam” + ‘egg’ “Spam egg” When I try it myself, there is no output? I thought you can get the text shown without typing in “print”?

You kind of have to, because just putting random strings doesn't do anything

An explanation of the command prompt, what you enter and the output you get from the Python interpreter.

You need to direct the print output to the console so you need the print command đŸ€”

Your prompt (aka Interpreter) is not the same as a python program. Stuff you put in a file is evaluated at runtime, while the interpreter prints the returning value, you don't have to type the print. If you put a string in a file, the file doesn't return anything, you have to print it.

In python print used print because when goes string length it does come for example input if typing "I am learning python " to give print it come output:I am learning python

Print is required only in script mode as it requires. Py. extension as script mode require more information than interactively mode so print is not required to show a text
