Introduction[edit]
Printing refers to sending a stream of data, most often text but sometimes binary data as well, to an output device. Frequently this device is simply the console. The console refers to the input and output devices used to interact with a computer. It's usually comprised of a screen and keyboard, and sometimes a type of pointing device.
Printing is important not only for interacting with humans, but with other computing systems. For example, you've already had a lot of experience in interacting with Merlin Mission Manager through print statements.
