How to print Chinese characters in python

Today I will share with you a method of using print to output Chinese in Python. It has a good reference value and I hope it will be helpful to everyone.

Watch the Python concise tutorial and learn to use print to print strings. I tried printing Chinese, but it didn’t work. (Recommended learning: Python video tutorial)

Editing environment: IDLE

I searched the Internet for solutions, various opinions, and tried two:

print u"学习"
print (unicode("学习", encoding="utf-8"))

An error will still be prompted when saving.

Shell output:

ѧϰ
ѧϰ

It means that the first one is still encoded but it is still wrong.

Finally, just add the first line. Although I still don’t understand what the first line is, isn’t it that # is a comment? . .

# encoding: utf-8
print 'helloworld'
print u"学习"
print (unicode("学习", encoding="utf-8"))

shell output:

helloworld
学习
学习

Finally: I found that when writing code, I still need to pay attention to the editor’s feedback. I only think about the kind of C compiler errors in the past. Python is a scripting language. Compilation is not performed, so you will be prompted when saving.

Feedback when saving: python # -*- coding: cp936 -*- means specifying the character set used when saving the code.

So the encoding statement in the first line can also be specified with #-*- coding: UTF-8 -*-.
