Sure, because output.txt
is a text file.
Once it has been created it is a text file like any other.
One way to print the output of a program is to redirect its output to a text file (as in the previous page), then read the file into Notepad, then used Notepad's print command. Here is a Hello.java program that can be used with "copy-paste-save-and-run" to practice redirection.
class Hello { public static void main ( String[] args ) { System.out.println("Hello World"); } }
Here (again) is this program being used with output redirection:
C:\users\default\JavaLessons>javac Hello.java compiling: Hello.java C:\users\default\JavaLessons>java Hello > output.txt C:\users\default\JavaLessons>type output.txt Hello World C:\users\default\JavaLessons>
Of course, you will probably be in a different subdirectory when you do this.
