The Print() Method

Print Text

You learned from the previous chapter that you can use the println() method to output values or print text in Java:

System.out.println("Hello World!");

You can add as many println() methods as you want. Note that it will add a new line for each method:

System.out.println("Hello World!");
System.out.println("I am learning Java.");
System.out.println("It is awesome!");

Double Quotes

When you are working with text, it must be wrapped inside double quotations marks "".

If you forget the double quotes, an error occurs:

System.out.println("This sentence will work!");

The Print() Method

There is also a print() method, which is similar to println().

The only difference is that it does not insert a new line at the end of the output:

System.out.print("Hello World! ");
System.out.print("I will print on the same line.");

Print Numbers

You can also use the println() method to print numbers.

However, unlike text, we don't put numbers inside double quotes:

System.out.println(3);
System.out.println(358);
System.out.println(50000);

System.out.println(3 + 3);

System.out.println(2 * 5);
