Python print output not shown in Thonny (version 3.3.5), Python 3.7.3

Question

When running program below, the first line ("Hello World") is shown in the shell output.

Also, the Bluetooth connection is working fine (I can send "0" and "1" and they are well received in minicom therefor the required data is getting to the RPI).

But the second print command print ("Accepted from ", address) is not shown in the shell output window: why is that?

SOLVED (thks to Milliways): program execution to be done BEFORE connection made by Blue Term Android terminal program made the address printed out once connection established.

    print("Hello World")
import bluetooth
import RPi.GPIO as GPIO        #calling for header file which helps in using GPIOs of PI
LED=21
 
GPIO.setmode(GPIO.BCM)     #programming the GPIO by BCM pin numbers. (like PIN40 as GPIO21)
GPIO.setwarnings(False)
GPIO.setup(LED,GPIO.OUT)  #initialize GPIO21 (LED) as an output Pin
GPIO.output(LED,0)
 
server_socket=bluetooth.BluetoothSocket( bluetooth.RFCOMM )
 
port = 1
server_socket.bind(("",port))
server_socket.listen(1)
 
client_socket,address = server_socket.accept()
print ("Accepted connection from ",address)
while 1:
 
 data = client_socket.recv(1024)
 print ("Received: %s" % data)
 if (data == "0"):    #if '0' is sent from the Android App, turn OFF the LED
  print ("GPIO 21 LOW, LED OFF")
  GPIO.output(LED,0)
 if (data == "1"):    #if '1' is sent from the Android App, turn OFF the LED
  print ("GPIO 21 HIGH, LED ON")
  GPIO.output(LED,1)
 if (data == "q"):
  print ("Quit")
  break
 
client_socket.close()
server_socket.close()

Change your print statement to the following:

print(f"Accepted connection from {address}")

Please check how to print guide from here as well. I would suggest learning and using f-Strings.
