Now what we’re going to do is teach our computer to communicate. The gift of speech is valuable: a computer can answer many questions we have about “how” or “why” or “what” it is doing. In Python, the print()
function is used to tell a computer to talk. The message to be printed should be surrounded by quotes:
# from Mary Shelley's Frankenstein print("There is something at work in my soul, which I do not understand.")
In the above example, we direct our program to print()
an excerpt from a notable book. The printed words that appear as a result of the print()
function are referred to as output. The output of this example program would be:
There is something at work in my soul, which I do not understand.
