There are 2 overloads of print<\/code> (2 different functions with the same name) – this one<\/a> and this one<\/a>.<\/p>\n

If you just say print<\/code>, it is ambiguous which overload you mean. Therefore, you also specify the parameter labels of the functions, so the first overload is called print(_:separator:terminator:)<\/code> and the second is called print(_:separator:terminator:to:)<\/code>.<\/p>\n

Let’s dissect print(_:separator:terminator:)<\/code>. We can see that it has three parameter labels – _<\/code>, separator<\/code> and terminator<\/code>. The :<\/code> are just there to separate the labels. It is also the character you write after the label when you call the function:<\/p>\n

print(\"hello\", \"world\", separator: \" \")\n                                 ^\n<\/code><\/pre>\n
so it kind of makes sense.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
