[Solved] Why coming None in output with ASCII values?

I am printing the ASCII values of alphabets but I also am also getting None? Does anyone know the reason? See the Code below def printAscii(): str = "abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz" for i in str: #print(i, end = ' ') print(ord(i), end = ' ') print(printAscii())

because youre printing a function that prints. and the function doesnt return anything, so it prints None after it takes care of the call to print out all of the ascii values. instead of print(print_ASCII()) just print_ASCII()

DAC 🎯 [Exams] , because there are two print statements => one in the function and the other outside when calling the function. So when the function finishes the last thing it does is print inside a print, but print return None and the outside print shows that result.
