We are using the print function. You can identify functions in Python as they have ( ) after the function name.

The print function takes one or more arguments (stuff inside the brackets). In this example it has one string (piece of text). Strings are enclosed in either " " or ' '.

print("You ran a Python program!")

Save your file and press F5 to run the code.

print("Hi","Bob","I'm a computer, BEEEP.")

A common first program is to have the program print "Hello World". This is shown below.

print("Hello World")

Modify the program to display the following:
