WRITE

Syntax

WRITE [<list of expressions>]

Versions: Disk

Purpose

To output data at the terminal.

Remarks

If is omitted, a blank line is output. If is included, the values of the expressions are output at the terminal. The expressions in the list may be numeric and/or string expressions, and they must be separated by commas.

When the printed items are output, each item will be separated from the last by a comma. Printed strings will be delimited by quotation marks. After the last item in the list is printed, BASIC inserts a carriage return/line feed.

WRITE outputs numeric values using the same format as the PRINT statement.

Example

10 A=50:B=90:C$="THAT'S ALL"
20 WRITE A,B,C$
RUN
50, 90,"THAT'S ALL"
Ok
