5 min read beginner

The print() function is often used to output variables.

python

val_1 = "Python is awesome"
print(val_1)

In the print() function, you output multiple variables, separated by a comma:

python

val_1 = "Python"val_2 = "is"z = "awesome"print(val_1, val_2, z)

You can also use the + operator to output multiple variables:

python

val_1 = "Python "val_2 = "is "z = "awesome"print(val_1 
  + val_2 + z)

Note: Notice the space character after "Python " and "is ", without them the result would be "Pythonisawesome".

For numbers, the + character works as a mathematical operator:

python

val_1 = 5y = 10print(val_1 + val_2)

In the print() function, when you try to combine a string and a number with the + operator, Python will give you an error:

python

val_1 = 5y = "Alice"print(val_1 + val_2)

The best way to output multiple variables in the print() function is to separate them with commas, which even support different data types:

python

val_1 = 5y = "Alice"print(val_1, val_2)
