We can display more than one output by using a semi colon.

PRINT <Constant> or <Variable> or <Expression>

PRINT “HELLO WORLD”
HELLO WORLD will be displayed on the output screen.
Example 2
LET A = Hello
LET B = My
LET C = World
PRINT A; “ ” B; “ ” C
Hello My World will be displayed on the output screen.
If you need to display the output with a plenty of space, you can
use a comma in place of the semi colon.

lot of space between all the words.
