Python 2.x.x how to add a comma in print statement of python without preceding space character?

I am new to python and learning,

Code:

name = "Andrew"
print name,","

Output:

Andrew ,

A space character is injected in before the comma, which is undesirable. How may we print the comma immediately after name like Andrew, with no intervening space character?

The default behavior of the print command of Python is to add a space between its arguments.

In Python 2.x.x:

You could use the string concatenation operator + to do this before you print it like:

name = "Andrew"
print name + ","

Output:

Andrew,

However, if you are dealing with Python 3.x.x you could use the argument sep to change the separator from space to empty character like:

print(name, ",", sep="")
