INPUT AND OUTPUT IN PYTHON
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.

Unlike Java and C++, Python does not use brackets to delimit code; but indentation is
mandatory with Python.
