There are three main types of statements in Python:
• Simple Statements • Multiline Statements • Multiple Statements

12.4.1 Simple Statement
A simple statement in Python is a statement that is written in a single line and completed by pressing the Enter key.
Each simple statement performs one action and is written on a new line.
Program 12: To demonstrate simple statements in Python.

Program 12.py

File Edit Format Run Options Window Help

# Simple assignment statements
a = 5
b = 10
# Simple arithmetic statement
c = a + b
# Simple output statement
print("Value of a:", a)
print("Value of b:", b)
print("Sum of a and b:", c)

Output

Value of a: 5
Value of b: 10
Sum of a and b: 15

12.4.2 Multiline Statement
A multiline statement is a statement that is written across two or more lines instead of a single line. It is used when the
code is too long to fit comfortably on one line. Multiline statements make the program more readable and organized.
Python allows multiline statements in the following ways:
• The line continuation character (\)

• Brackets such as (), [], {}
Program 13: To demonstrate multiline statement.

# Performing a long addition using line continuation character (\)
result = 100 + 200 + 300 + \
400 + 500 + 600
# Displaying the final result
print("Result:", result)

Output

Result: 2100
