bug in 'The Spread Operator' course ?

Question

Hi,

I have a strange behavior with the Javascript code (Try it Yourself) in the

Spread in object literals

const obj1 = { foo: 'bar', x: 42 };
const obj2 = { foo: 'baz', y: 5 };
const merge = (...objects) => ({...objects});

let mergedObj = merge(obj1, obj2);
// { 0: { foo: 'bar', x: 42 }, 1: { foo: 'baz', y: 5 } }

let mergedObj2 = merge({}, obj1, obj2);
// { 0: {}, 1: { foo: 'bar', x: 42 }, 2: { foo: 'baz', y: 5 } }

I don't get anything in the SoloLearn Javascript console (I use Safari on Macbook).

Same when I run it the code in Visual Studio Code as Output, I only get

[Running] node "/var/folders/rh/fcqxsdxn2fnbjg_xssrj2k3c0000gp/T/tempCodeRunnerFile.javascript"

[Done] exited with code=0 in 1.476 seconds

And nothing in Debug Console.

Thank you for your help.

Best,
Alex

There isn't a bug, they've put the output as comments so you don't actually need to run it at all - it tells you what the output is.
