print

Syntax:

      print <expression> {, <expression>, ...}

The print command prints the value of one or more expressions. Output is to the screen unless it has been redirected using the set print command. See expressions. See also printerr.

An <expression> may be any valid gnuplot expression, including numeric or string constants, a function returning a number or string, an array, or the name of a variable. It is also possible to print a datablock. The sprintf and gprintf functions can be used in conjunction with print for additional flexibility in formatting the output.

You can use iteration within a print command to include multiple values on a single line of output.

Examples:

     print 123 + 456
     print sinh(pi/2)
     print "rms of residuals (FIT_STDFIT) is ", FIT_STDFIT
     print sprintf("rms of residuals is %.3f after fit", FIT_STDFIT)
     print "Array A: ", A
     print "Individual elements of array A: ", for [i=1:|A|] A[i]
     print $DATA
