Understanding print( )

To print or display output, Python 3.x provides print function( ).

print( <objects to be printed>)

For Example:

Carefully notice that first string is enclosed in double quotes and second in single quotes. Both the strings
are valid,but just ensure that opening and closing quotation mark should be of same type.
