Answer 1

You can try this with python 3:

from termcolor import colored
print(colored('Hello, World!', 'green', 'on_red'))

If you are using windows operating system, the above code may not work for you. Then you can try this code:

from colorama import init
from termcolor import colored

# use Colorama to make Termcolor work on Windows too
init()

# then use Termcolor for all colored text output
print(colored('Hello, World!', 'green', 'on_red'))

Hope that helps.
