print
is an intrinsic function that displays a string to the user. It is a standard intrinsic, though there may be some implementations where this output is not actually visible. In implementations that have something like a standard output stream, print
adds the given string to that stream, typically followed by the standard line delimiter.

Arguments
Parameter Name | Default Value | Meaning |
---|---|---|
s | "" | string to display to the user |
delimiter | <platform's new line> | lines delimiter following s |
Usage Notes
print
returns null, and so it is usually used as a statement. As such, it does not require parentheses around its argument.
The argument defaults to an empty string, so print
by itself may be used to print a blank line.
Example
print "Hello, world!"
