  97. use <code>output</code> instead.

  99. <p>Here&rsquo;s a simple example of using these convenience variables for
  100. stepping through all the trace snapshots and printing some of their
  101. data. Note that these are not the same as trace state variables,
  102. which are managed by the target.
