It simply prints a message in the Output/ Developer Console; you can open the console by typing "/console" in chat or pressing F9 in game.

How or why? to use it you just type in a script: print("message here"), and for the why; it's normally useful for debugging and error finding NoahsRebels 99 — 4y

Because there's no other method to print console/ output messages besides error() and warn() NoahsRebels 99 — 4y

Print is is basically a function that lets you print something in the output bar but print can't be used as a function that makes you write in a textbox or what ever . you can also put an variable in print like:
s = "Hello World!" print(s)
this is for text change Script:
local TextBox = script.Parent.Parent.TextBox TextBox.text = "Hello"
