Actually, print is not keyword in Python. It is builtin function.
And you can define variable with name print:

a=print
print = 3
a(print * 5)

will output 15

Print was a keyword in Python 2 but has become a function in Python 3.

Answer 10

maf,
you will get an error because you try to call variable 'print' which is not a function anymore and has integer type after assignment: print(print)

but print=5 will not get any error!!!

See my code above.
I store reference to print in variable a, and then call a with variable print multiplied by 5.
You can run it.
