Hello, Python

Every Python program is a list of instructions that run from top to bottom. The first instruction everyone learns is print(). It shows text on the screen.

print("Hello!")
print("Python is easy")

Output:

Hello!
Python is easy

Text inside quotes is called a string. You can use double quotes "hi" or single quotes 'hi', both work the same.

Each print() writes on a new line. You can also print numbers, and Python will even do maths for you:

print(7)
print(2 + 3)

Python is case-sensitive. print works, Print and PRINT do not.
