Remember to:
- Ask your Python question, not if you can ask or if there's an expert who can help.
- Show a code sample as text (rather than a screenshot) and the error message, if you've got one.
- Explain what you expect to happen and what actually happens.
:warning: Do not pip install anything that isn't related to your question, especially if asked to over DMs.
one piece of advice i can recommend is make sure that any warning or error messages that you decide to print goes to standard error and not standard output
import sys
def eprint(*args, **kwargs):
print(*args, file=sys.stderr, **kwargs)
other than that i think print() is alright for simple output
!d logging
Source code: Lib/logging/__init__.py...
Highly recommend using a logging module/package
Just use logging
