PCEP Using `sep=` and `end=` in `print()` 3

Question 1

What is the output of `print('Python', 3, sep='.')`?

Accepted Answer

Python.3

Answer

sep='.' is placed between the string 'Python' and the integer 3 after it is converted to its string representation.

Question 2

Which of the following will print three items on the same line separated by tabs?

Accepted Answer

Both A and C

Answer

Both using `sep='	'` and embedding `	` directly in one string produce tab-separated output on one line.

Question 3

What is the result of:
```
print('A', end='B')
print('C')
```

Accepted Answer

ABC

Answer

The first print ends with 'B' instead of '
', so 'C' from the second print immediately follows, producing 'ABC' on one line.

Question 4

What is the default value of the `sep=` parameter in Python's `print()` function?

Accepted Answer

A single space ' '

Answer

The default separator is a single space, which is why `print('a', 'b')` outputs `a b`.

Question 5

What does the following print?
```
print(*[1, 2, 3], sep='-')
```

Accepted Answer

1-2-3

Answer

The `*` unpacks the list into three separate arguments, and `sep='-'` places a hyphen between each of them.
