Not sure what info you need.

printf("hello\n")

tmp = "hello"

printf("%s\n" tmp)

%s for string

%L for list

%f or %2.3f floats

%n for intergers

Ex:

tmp1 = "Booyaa"

tmp2 = '(0.05 0.75)

printf("The coords are %L. %s\n" tmp1 tmp2)

I think you just meant to do printf("\\") . Backslash is an escape character in strings, so you need to escape the escape character and have two backslashes.

Regards,

Andrew.
