Print Text and Values to Console(scripting)

''written by Fidcal''

==Print to Console==

sys.print()

sys.println()

To send text or values or string or numeric variables to the console use:

sys.print(data1+data2+data3...);

...where 'data' is separated by plus signs and can be:
* A string of characters within double quote marks
* A numeric value
* A string or numeric variable
* Any legal calculation or expression such as 3*4+2
* Any combination of the above, separated by plus signs (but numeric values will be added so 3+5 will display as 8 not 35)

Use \n within double quotes to force a linefeed, eg, "Line1\nLine2"

Examples:

sys.print("\n\nYour script is running");
sys.print("\n"+x+" green bottles");
sys.print(99);
sys.print(3*4+x/2);

sys.println appears to do the same as sys.print - even numeric calculations.
