           if (num % i) == 0:
               break
       else:
           print(num)

x =10
y = 20
printPrime(x,y);
x =1180
y = 1200
printPrime(x,y);

python print function syntax

Most of the beginners in python always confuse with print function and start searching for print function in google.Like other programming language python print out put function also easy. In this tutorial we are going to explore python print ,the way to print the out put in python. print() is the function used in python to print out put.

Output:

10


3) python print : managing tuble


tupleA = (2, 4, 8, 12)
