What does “SyntaxError: Missing parentheses in call to 'print'” mean in Python?

Question

When I try to use a print statement in Python, it gives me this error:

>>> print \"Hello, World!\"
  File \"\", line 1
            


        

Answer 1

In Python 3, you can only print as:

print("STRING")

But in Python 2, the parentheses are not necessary.
