Print Text
You learned from the previous chapter that you can use the println() method to output values or print text in Java:
Example
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:
Example
System.out.println("Hello World!");
System.out.println("I am learning Java.");
System.out.println("It is awesome!");
Double Quotes
Text must be wrapped inside double quotations marks "".
If you forget the double quotes, an error occurs:
Example
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:
Example
System.out.print("Hello World! ");
System.out.print("I will print on the same line.");
Note that we add an extra space (after "Hello World!" in the example above) for better readability.
Note: In this tutorial, we will only use
println()as it makes the code output easier to read.
