Here's an example:
console.log("Hello, world!");
console.log() is a function in JavaScript that allows you to display output in the console. The console is a built-in feature available in web browsers and development environments like Node.js.
Variables
In JavaScript, variables are used to store data values. They provide a way to assign a name to a value, which can be used and manipulated throughout your code.
Variable Declaration:
In JavaScript, you can declare variables using the var, let, or const keywords.
var is the older way of declaring variables, while let and const were introduced in newer versions of JavaScript (ES6+).
Here's an example of variable declaration:
var age = 25;
let name = "John";
const PI = 3.14;
