Escape Sequence Character and Comment

  • To create a new line we use backslash n, you don’t need to leave spaces around backslash n as well.
  • To add a comment just use a “#”. Or to comment out multiple lines just use (”’) triple single quotes or triple double quotes.
print("Hey!\nHow are you doing")

# Hey!
# How are you doing

'''
Multi
line
comment
'''

"""
Multi

comment

Double Quote Escape Sequence Character

  • So to add double quotes inside double quotes all you need to use is a backslash \
  • An escape sequence character is a backslash followed by the character you want to insert.
print("Hello, this is \"Varun\"\nand I'm trying to learn Python")

# Hello, this is "Varun
# and I'm trying to learn Python

Separator

  • Separator is used to separate multiple values with what ever you’ve added like we added ~ in the example below.
  • Similarly end=’end’ specify what to print at the end. Default is ‘\n’ (line feed).
  • File: An object with a write method. Default is sys.stdout.
  • Remember that 2 to 4 are optional, You don’t really need to use them, but are there if you need them for some reason.
print("Hey", 6, 7, sep="~")

# Hey~6~7

print("Hey", 6, 7, sep="~", end="009\n")
print("Varun")
# Hey~6~7009
# Varun

print("Hey", 6, 7, sep="~", end="009\n")
print("Varun")
# Hey~6~7009
# Varun
