## util.deprecate(function, string)
Marks that a method should not be used any more.
exports.puts = exports.deprecate(function() {
for (var i = 0, len = arguments.length; i < len; ++i) {
process.stdout.write(arguments[i] + '\n');
}
}, 'util.puts: Use console.log instead')
It returns a modified function which warns once by default. If
`--no-deprecation` is set then this function is a NO-OP. If
`--throw-deprecation` is set then the application will throw an exception
if the deprecated API is used.
## util.debug(string)
Stability: 0 - Deprecated: use console.error() instead.
