WRITE

WRITE
        OUTFILE='FILE_NAME'
        RECORDS=N_LINES
        {NOTABLE,TABLE}
        /[LINE_NO] ARG...

ARG takes one of the following forms:
        'STRING' [START-END]
        VAR_LIST START-END [TYPE_SPEC]
        VAR_LIST (FORTRAN_SPEC)
        VAR_LIST *

WRITE writes text or binary data to an output file. WRITE differs from PRINT in only a few ways:

• WRITE uses write formats by default, whereas PRINT uses print formats.

• PRINT inserts a space between variables unless a format is explicitly specified, but WRITE never inserts space between variables in output.

• PRINT inserts a space at the beginning of each line that it writes to an output file (and PRINT EJECT inserts 1 at the beginning of each line that should begin a new page), but WRITE does not.

• PRINT outputs the system-missing value according to its specified output format, whereas WRITE outputs the system-missing value as a field filled with spaces. Binary formats are an exception.
