printnnl

Description

The printnnl procedure writes one or more expressions to the user’s terminal as a single line. The line does not terminate with a new line character. A space separates each argument.

The print and printnnl procedures work in the same manner. The only difference being that print terminates the generated character string with a newline character, whereas printnnl does not.

Syntax

printnnl (expression1 [, expression2, …]);

Arguments

expression1 Required. An expression that contains the information to display to the user
expression2 … Optional. Additional expressions to display to the user.

Return Values

Because printnnl is a procedure, no return value is set.

Example

In the example below,

printnnl ("Your task request has been accepted."); print ("Thank you.");

writes the following to the user's terminal:

Your task request has been accepted. Thank you.

The text that is printed by printnnl is not terminated with a newline character, so the text that is printed with print appears on the same line.
