I am new to coding. And I would like to know if there's a way for input function to not print newline character after the value is entered. Something like print function's argument end. Is there any way?

Well, you can't make input() trigger by anything besides 'Enter' hit (other way may be using sys.stdin and retrieving character one-by-one until you receive some stop marker, but it's difficult both for programmer and for user, I suppose). As a workaround I can the suggest the following: if you can know the length of line written before + length of user input, then you can use some system codes to move cursor back to the end of previous line, discarding the printed newline:

print("This is first line.")
prompt = "Enter second: "
ans = input(prompt)
print(f"\033[A\033[{len(prompt)+len(ans)}C And the third.")

\033[A moves cursor one line up and \033[<N>C moves cursor N symbols right. The example code produces the following output:

This is first line.
Enter second: USER INPUT HERE And the third.

Also note that the newline character is not printed by your program, it's entered by user.
