Noun

output (countable and uncountable, plural outputs)

    • 1956, Yuan-li Wu, An Economic Survey of Communist China[1], New York: Bookman Associates, →OCLC, page 284:
      Output at the Pen-ch'i mine, which produced somewhat under 1 million tons annually during 1942-1944, was around 500,000 tons in 1949.
    • 2013 August 3, “Boundary problems”, in The Economist, volume 408, number 8847:
      Economics is a messy discipline: too fluid and unique to be a science, too rigorous to be an art. Perhaps it is fitting that economists’ most-used metric, gross domestic product (GDP), is a tangle too. GDP measures the total value of output in an economic territory. Its apparent simplicity explains why it is scrutinised down to tenths of a percentage point every month.
    The factory increased its output this year.
  2. (computing) Data sent out of the computer, as to output device such as a monitor or printer, or data sent from one program on the computer to another.
