Documentation for routine put assembled from the following types:

class Mu

From Mu

(Mu) method put

multi method put(--> Bool:D)

Prints value to $*OUT, adding a newline at end, and if necessary, stringifying non-Str object using the .Str method.

"abc".put;              # RESULT: «abc␤»

language documentation Independent routines

From Independent routines

(Independent routines) sub put

Defined as:

multi sub put()
multi sub put(**@args --> True)
multi sub put(Junction:D --> True)
multi sub put(Str:D \x)
multi sub put(\x)

Same as print, except it uses print-nl (which prints a newline, by default) at the end. Junction arguments autothread and the order of printed strings is not guaranteed.

put "Hi there!\n";   # OUTPUT: «Hi there!␤␤» 
put "Hi there!";     # OUTPUT: «Hi there!␤» 
put [1, 2, 3];       # OUTPUT: «1 2 3␤»

By itself, put() will print a new line

put "Hey"; put(); put("Hey"); # OUTPUT: «Hey␤␤Hey␤»

but please note that we have used parentheses after put. By itself, it will thrown an exception (with version 6.d and after). It will also raise an exception if it's used that way before for; use the method form <.put> instead.

.put for <1 2 3>;             # # OUTPUT: «1␤2␤3␤»

role IO::Socket

From IO::Socket

(IO::Socket) method put

method put(IO::Socket:D: Str(Cool) $string)

Writes the supplied string, with a \n appended to it, to the socket, thus sending it to other end of the connection.

Fails if the socket is not connected.

class IO::CatHandle

From IO::CatHandle

(IO::CatHandle) method put

Defined as:

multi method put(|)

The IO::CatHandle type overrides this method to throw a X::NYI exception. If you have a good idea for how this method should behave, tell Rakudo developers about it!

class IO::Handle

From IO::Handle

(IO::Handle) method put

Defined as:

multi method put(**@text --> True)
multi method put(Junction:D --> True)

Writes the given @text to the handle, coercing any non-Str objects to Str by calling .Str method on them, and appending the value of .nl-out at the end. Junction arguments autothread and the order of printed strings is not guaranteed.

Attempting to call this method when the handle is in binary mode will result in X::IO::BinaryMode exception being thrown.

my $fh = 'path/to/file'.IO.open: :w;
$fh.put: 'some text';
$fh.close;
