The global <code>console</code> can be used without calling\n<code>require('console')</code>.</li>\n</ul>\n<p><strong><em>Warning</em></strong>: The global console object's methods are neither consistently\nsynchronous like the browser APIs they resemble, nor are they consistently\nasynchronous like all other Node.js streams. See the <a href=\"process.html#process_a_note_on_process_i_o\">note on process I/O</a> for\nmore information.</p>\n<p>Example using the global <code>console</code>:</p>\n<pre><code class=\"language-js\">console.log('hello world');\n// Prints: hello world, to stdout\nconsole.log('hello %s', 'world');\n// Prints: hello world, to stdout\nconsole.error(new Error('Whoops, something bad happened'));\n// Prints: [Error: Whoops, something bad happened], to stderr\n\nconst name = 'Will Robinson';\nconsole.warn(`Danger ${name}! Danger!`);\n// Prints: Danger Will Robinson! Danger!, to stderr\n</code></pre>\n<p>Example using the <code>Console</code> class:</p>\n<pre><code class=\"language-js\">const out = getStreamSomehow();\nconst err = getStreamSomehow();\nconst myConsole = new console.Console(out, err);\n\nmyConsole.log('hello world');\n// Prints: hello world, to out\nmyConsole.log('hello %s', 'world');\n// Prints: hello world, to out\nmyConsole.error(new Error('Whoops, something bad happened'));\n// Prints: [Error: Whoops, something bad happened], to err\n\nconst name = 'Will Robinson';\nmyConsole.warn(`Danger ${name}!
