>help print
The `print` command prints the value of to the screen. It is
synonymous with `pause 0`. may be anything that `gnuplot` can
evaluate that produces a number, or it can be a string.

Syntax:
　　print {, , ...}

See `expressions`. The output file can be set with `set print`.

要するに、詳しくは expressionsの項目を見てね・・・っと。

>help expressions
In general, any mathematical expression accepted by C, FORTRAN, Pascal, or
BASIC is valid. The precedence of these operators is determined by the
specifications of the C programming language. White space (spaces and tabs)
is ignored inside expressions.

Complex constants are expressed as {,}, where and
must be numerical constants. For example, {3,2} represents 3 + 2i; {0,1}
represents 'i' itself. The curly braces are explicitly required here.

Note that gnuplot uses both "real" and "integer" arithmetic, like FORTRAN and
C. Integers are entered as "1", "-10", etc; reals as "1.0", "-10.0", "1e1",
3.5e-1, etc. The most important difference between the two forms is in
division: division of integers truncates: 5/2 = 2; division of reals does
not: 5.0/2.0 = 2.5. In mixed expressions, integers are "promoted" to reals
before evaluation: 5/2e0 = 2.5. The result of division of a negative integer
by a positive one may vary among compilers. Try a test like "print -5/2" to
determine if your system chooses -2 or -3 as the answer.

The integer expression "1/0" may be used to generate an "undefined" flag,
which causes a point to ignored; the `ternary` operator gives an example.
Or you can use the pre-defined variable NaN to achieve the same result.

The real and imaginary parts of complex expressions are always real, whatever
the form in which they are entered: in {3,2} the "3" and "2" are reals, not
integers.

Gnuplot can also perform simple operations on strings and string variables.
For example, the expression ("A" . "B" eq "AB") evaluates as true, illustrating
the string concatenation operator and the string equality operator.

A string which contains a numerical value is promoted to the corresponding
integer or real value if used in a numerical expression. Thus ("3" + "4" == 7)
and (6.78 == "6.78") both evaluate to true. An integer, but not a real or
complex value, is promoted to a string if used in string concatenation.
A typical case is the use of integers to construct file names or other strings;
e.g. ("file" . 4 eq "file4") is true.

Substrings can be specified using a postfixed range descriptor [beg:end].
Press return for more:
For example, "ABCDEF"[3:4] == "CD" and "ABCDEF"[4:*] == "DEF"
The syntax "string"[beg:end] is exactly equivalent to calling the built-in
string-valued function substr("string",beg,end), except that you cannot
omit either beg or end from the function call.

Subtopics available for expressions:
　functions　operators　random　tm_hour
　tm_mday　tm_min　tm_mon　tm_sec
　tm_wday　tm_yday　tm_year　user-defined

C言語で言うと、

printf("%e¥n",a);

みたいなことがしたいんです。




○printの結果を出力する

できるらしい。

> set print ''FILENAME"
> print 500

これで、FILENAMEというファイルの中に500と書かれてるはず。

どこかで使えるかもね
