Lots of ways! Here is the simplest, but longest. Call print three times,
being careful to not allow a newline to be printed until the end:
print word, # note the comma, that suppresses the new line
print word,
print word # no comma
What if you wanted to print it fifty times? Use a loop.
for i in range(50):
print word, # note the comma
# At the end of the loop, print a blank to get a new line.
print
Here's a nice trick that's a bit more mysterious for beginners, but works
well:
print ' '.join([word]*3)
If you don't understand it, break it up into each piece:
[word]*3 creates a list [word, word, word]
' '.join(the list) makes a string with the words separated by spaces:
' '.join(['quick', 'brown', 'fox']) => 'quick brown fox'
and then you finally print the result.

enough, things got worse.
