In the interactive interpreter, as a convenience, the result of each

Actually the interpreter prints the result of each /statement /that IS
an /expression/.
>>> 2
2

>>> a
3
IOW if the line is blank, start with # or is a statement the interpreter
does not print anything (unless it is a print statement). For a messy
example:
>>> if 1:3;a=4;a
...
3
4
