public class HelloPrinter

public static void main(String[] args)
{
System.out.print(3);
System.out.println("3 + 4 + 5");
}
}
I wrote my first ever very simple Java program today which executes two lines of instructions and prints the output on a single line.
Lets take a look at lines 5 and 6 of this program.
System.out.print(3); prints the number 3 and positions the cursor immediately to the right of the number 3.
System.out.println(“3 + 4 + 5”); prints the string 3 + 4 + 5 immediately to the right of the number 3.
If I had used println instead of print, the cursor would have moved to a new line. Since I used print, the cursor moved to the right of the number 3 allowing for the output to print on the same line.
The second line of the program prints out the string 3 + 4 + 5 resulting in combining a number and a string together in a single line of output.
33 + 4 + 5
