                 The print() Function


                 The print() function prints or sends the output to the standard output device, which is usually a
                 monitor. This function auto converts the items to strings, i.e., if you try printing a numeric value,
                 the print() function will automatically convert it into equivalent string and print it. The print()
                 function also introduces spaces between items automatically.
                 The general syntax of the print() function is as follows:

                 print [<expression 1> , <expression 2>...]
                 For example:

                 print ("Python is easy").
                 Let's create a program to use the input( ) and print( ) functions.

                     VARIABLES IN PYTHON

                 Variables are memory reference points where you store values which can be accessed or changed
                 later. The names given to the variables are known as identifiers. In Python, you do not need to
                 specify the type of variable because Python is a dynamically typed language and it identifies the
                 variable type automatically. Let’s understand this with the help of the given examples.

                        num = 0.4
                        _price = 30.3
                        TOTAL = round(_price * num,2)

                        print(TOTAL)
                 Declaring and Initializing a Variable


                 In Python, variables are declared and initialized at the same time in the following way:

                   a = 10
                   b = 20

                   print ("a=", a)

                   print ("b=", b)
