for x in range(len(s)):
    if x % 2!=0:
        print(s[x])

This is the code I am using to print every other character in a string. However, when I run it, it prints the characters like this:
a
b
c
d
How can I get it to print them in a single line?(ex. abcd)

You can tell print not to insert a newline:

print(s[x], end="")

But my preference would be to join() the bits together before printing.

>>> s = "abcdefg"
>>> print("".join(char for index, char in enumerate(s) if index % 2 != 0))
bdf
>>> print(s[1::2])  #Or to do it directly
bdf
