| Example | |
| put_code(user_out, 113). | Assume there is an output stream called user_out and it has contents: q, w, e, the stream is left as: q, w, e, q |
| Exceptions | |
| Code is a variable | an instantiation_error exception is thrown. |
| Code is neither a variable nor an integer | a type_error(integer, Code) is thrown |
| stream_or_alias is a variable | an instantiation_error exception is thrown |
| stream_or_alias is neither a variable nor a stream term nor an alias | a domain_error(stream_or_alias, Stream) exception is thrown, the variable Stream is assigned the incorrect stream_or_alias term |
| stream_or_alias is not associated with an open stream | an existence_error(stream, Stream) exception is thrown |
| stream_or_alias is an input stream | a permission_error(output, stream, Stream) exception is thrown |
| stream_or_alias is a binary stream | a permission_error(output, binary_stream, OutputStream) is thrown, the variable OutputStream is assigned the stream which was used as the output stream |
