title: Python operators with other meanings (like the print chevron)
body: <p>There are a number of questions on SO about Python's print chevron, which uses the same token as one of the bit-shift operators to send <code>print</code>'s output somewhere other than stdout:</p>
  
  <pre><code>print &gt;&gt; sys.stderr, "foo"
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>From <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/a/18837450/2829764">one of the answers</a>:</p>
  
  <blockquote>
    <p>The >> token is not actually an operator here; it's part of the syntax of the print statement, as documented <a href="http://docs.python.org/2.7/reference/simple_stmts.html#the-print-statement" rel="nofollow noreferrer">here</a>.</p>
  </blockquote>
  
  <p>Are there other operators in Python 2 that also perform non-operator functions? What about Python 3 (in which the print chevron is gone)?</p>
