Noun

output (countable and uncountable, plural outputs)

1. That which is produced by something, especially that which is produced within a particular time period or from a particular effort.
   1. (economics) Production; quantity produced, created, or completed.

      The factory increased its output this year.

      • 1956, Yuan-li Wu, An Economic Survey of Communist China‎, 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.

      • 2009, Steven Rosefielde, Red Holocaust, page 240:

        It misdesigned goods, adversely selected technologies, misallocated and misremunerated factors of production, encouraged work to rule, underproduced, misdistributed outputs and was subject to a myriad of moral hazards.

      • 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.

   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.

      a six-page output; six pages of output

   3. (medicine) The flow rate of body liquids such as blood and urine.
   4. (electrical engineering) The amount of power produced by a particular system.
   5. (computing, electrical engineering) The terminal through which the data or power is delivered from the source, output terminal.
