2.3.2 Printing strings

Sometimes you might want to print strings. That's easy; just enclose the string in double quote marks, as follows.

 
print "text";

Note that any instances of the characters \n are first translated to newlines; any instance of the characters \t are first translated to tabs. Note: no newline is printed after printing the text.
