I Would like to understand why this outputs what it does

I had a similar question recently. See if this helps:

IO.puts output

How am I to interpret the output here: iex(5)> IO.puts [1, 2, 3] ^A^B^C :ok In Ruby, this is what I get: 2.4.0 :002> puts [1, 2, 3] 1 2 3 => nil Each element of the list is output followed by a newline. Thanks.
