In Python, you can change the color of the output using ANSI escape codes. For example, using the following code will output text in red:<\/p>\n

print<\/span>(\"\\033[91mThis text is red\\033[0m\"<\/span>)\r\n<\/code><\/pre>\n
“\\033[91m indicates changing the text color to red, while \\033[0m signifies restoring the default color.”<\/p>\n
In addition to red, you can also use other color codes to change the text color, such as:<\/p>\n
    \n
  1. Green: \\033[92m<\/li>\n
  2. Yellow: \\033[93m<\/li>\n
  3. Blue: \\033[94m<\/li>\n
  4. Magenta color: \\033[95m<\/li>\n
  5. Blue color: \\033[96m<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
    You can change the text color output by selecting different color codes as needed.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
