Output
The simplest way a program can communicate with its user is to print data on the screen.
-
The computer screen is called the standard output device ("standard out").
System.out.println("You were " + age + " in 2010."); -
Error messages are usually sent to the standard error device. This is also your computer screen, but could be set to a text file.
System.err.println("Your age cannot be negative!");
