Python: C++ style cin, cout in Python

Ready to bring some flavor of C++ into python? If you like cout, cin in C++ and also a python programmer, you'd definitely like this snippet.

import sys
class ostream:
    def __init__(self, file):
        self.file = file
        
    def __lshift__(self, obj):
        self.file.write(str(obj));
        return self
cout = ostream(sys.stdout)
cerr = ostream(sys.stderr)
endl = '\n'

x, y = 'Printing', 'like C++'
cout << x << " " << y << endl

Pretty cool, huh. I found this and a lot of other cool stuffs from Peter Norvig's blog. Its such a nice blog, just subscribed to it.
