stdout stands for "standard output." It is a file descriptor that is used by programs to output data. By default, the output from a program is directed to stdout, which is typically the terminal or console where the program is run.
In many programming languages, you can write to stdout using functions like print in Python or println! in Rust. You can also redirect stdout to files or other processes using shell commands. For example:
$ python3 prog.py > results.txt
This command runs prog.py and redirects its output to results.txt instead of displaying it on the terminal.
