Overview
To send a string followed by new line to stdout:
print('something')
To avoid sending a new line at the end:
print('something', end='.')
print('something', end='')
print() strips quotes from strings, resolves escaped characters and displays the resulting content:
print('this is a\nmulti-line string')
results in:
this is a
multi-line string
Redirect to stderr
print('something', file=sys.stderr)
