Note that print can actually only be used as a statement in python 2.
It just so happens that you can include parentheses in the statement.
Though that makes it look similar to a function call, it certainly is
not. You'll see that when you try to supply multiple arguments to the
"function." This makes python suddenly interpret the parentheses as a
tuple, making it obviously not a function call.
