Hello everybody, I'm new to the mailing list so I'm pretty sure I'll have lots of questions:)
It's a very basic question I have and everybody might look at this question and say, "Wow, she reallly doesn't get it?" But oh well. Here's my question: I'm in Chapter 2 of my Python Programming Third Editition book. I've gotten to the section of the chapter where it talks about a "newline character. Exactly what is a newline character? I keep reading the same section of the book and I'm just not really understanding. Here's the code that the book uses to explain the newline character: print("Here", end=" ") print("it is...") The book says that I can specify that a space be the final character printed instead of a newline. In the first print() statement I specify that a space be the final string printed. So the text "Here" appears but no newline character. The next print() statement prints the text "it is"..." right after the space following the final "e" in the "Here" text. You do it by passing a space to the end parameter of the print() function with the code end" ". My Operating System is Windows 7 and the Python version is 3.1.3. That's it. Thanks to anybody who responds to my question. -- *Ava Durand*
