INPUT AND OUTPUT
Python provides two commonly used functions input() and print() for input and output.
The input() Function
The input() function takes the user’s input while a program executes. The general syntax of the input()
function is as follows:
input([<prompt>])
Here, prompt is the string or message we wish to display on the screen. Example:
name = input("Enter your name: ")
>>> Enter your name: "Mohan"
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>...]
Example:
print ("Python is easy").
Let's create a program to use the input( ) and print( ) functions.
