How to output Chinese characters in python

Watch the Python concise tutorial and learn to use print to print strings. I tried printing Chinese, but it didn’t work.

Editing environment: IDLE

I searched the Internet for solutions and found various explanations. I tried two:

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

When saving, it still prompts:

shell output:

ѧϰ
ѧϰ

It means that the second type still has encoding but it is still wrong.

Finally, just add the first line. Although I still don’t understand what the first line is, it’s not that# Is it 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 compilation error reported in the past. Python is a scripting language and does not compile. , so it will prompt when saving.

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

About CP936: It is GBK. When IBM invented the Code Page, it placed GBK on page 936, so it is called CP936.

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