Printing Notation

Many of the examples in this manual print text when they are evaluated. Examples in this manual indicate printed text with -|. The value that is returned by evaluating the expression (here 1) is displayed with => and follows on a separate line.

printf ("foo %s\n", "bar")
     -| foo bar
     => 1
