SIMPLE question - trace() in Java?

Just started using Java (for Android, if that matters) and all I want is a write to the Console at runtime. In AS3 it would be trace(), in c# it would be Console.Write()...what is it in Java?

I think this question is so basic/simple that I am having a hard time phrasing my question to Google; Stackoverflow to the rescue! :)

System.out.print --> This will print without a final newline-character
System.out.println --> This will print with a newline-character, but is the same as the above System.out.printf --> This will accept format-specfiers, where the first argument is the mask and the other arguments are replacements.

This will work when you are doing "Android Java", if you use Eclipse it will be shown in LogCat

Log.d/w/e... --> Android

Take a look at android.util.Log. Also see the developer reference on debugging in general.
