Reinstateing print as a statement

Core Development

Hello all.

When choosing python over other languages i read that one of the most valuable assets
of the python language is the clean syntax.

by clean i mean : using indentation instead of brackets.
declaring function without brackets and yes : easy to use print statement (without a brackets)

I used to write prints for debugging for computing and within the idle (it very easy,fast and convenient)
because of that i suggest for the forum to discuss about reinstating the print as a statement.
of even build second print as a statement. we can call it cout or out or plot …

thank you for reading.

PEP 3105 – Make print a function offers a list of five good reasons why print was made a function. In the balance, is it worth losing those gains in order to avoid having to use the parentheses?
