can anyone explain me the output of "print 24|42 " in python

Answer 1

In Python3 only it will give you an error, because "print" is no longer a statemet, but a function: you must enclose their parameters inside parenthesis ( rounded brackets ):

print(24|42)

... the output is 58, as the pipe character ( | ) is a "bitwise operator", the binary OR:

Answer 2

It will give you error unless you remove string from print. like this.
print( '24/42')
