Print output not showing the correct format

I have written the python code as below:

magicNumber = 25

for n in range(100):
    if n is magicNumber:
        print(n, " is the magic number")
        break
    else:
        print(n)

The last line of output is showing in the format as below:

(25, ' is the magic number')

Please let me know what can i do to have the last line of the output as:

25 is the magic number

for python 2.x - print acts as a command just remove the brackets and it will work as expected.

print n, " is the magic number"

for python 3.x - print acts as a function; so below is fine.

print(n, " is the magic number")

There are some other methods also as suggested by the user abccd.

You're running the code in python 2. That explains the braces being printed. Run in python 3 it'll work as you expect. Or if you still prefer python 2,then just remove the braces and put

print n,' is the magicnumber'

There's many ways you can accomplish this, since you're using python 2, there isn't a default print function. So you will have to import it, one way will be to add this on the top of your code.

from __future__ import print_function

Other ways include using string formatting such as:

print "%s is the magic number" % n

And 

print "{0} is the magic number".format(n)

Or you can just easily remove the brackets and it will all be the same.

print n, "is the magic number"
