PRINT
Syntax: PRINT(expression or string);
Prints the result of expression or string to the terminal.
The terminal is a program text output viewing mechanism which is displayed only when PRINT commands
are executed. When visible, you can press or to view the text, to erase the text and any
other key to hide the terminal. Pressing stops the interaction with the terminal. PRINT with no
argument clears the terminal.
There are also commands for outputting data in the Graphics section. In particular, the commands TEXTOUT
and TEXTOUT_P can be used for text output.
This example prompts the user to enter a value for the radius of a circle, and prints the area of the circle on
the terminal.
EXPORT AREACALC()
BEGIN
LOCAL radius;
INPUT(radius, "Radius of Circle","r = ","Enter radius",1);
PRINT("The area is " +π*radius^2);
END;
