I don't know JavaScript at all yet, but I found this on the web: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/4539253/what-is-console-log So I think it is a good way to debug/check your code...? đŸ€”

from what i understand, console.log allows to see what happens in your javascript code without using html. it's a windows where the result of a function can be displayed. for example , if you write an function doing an operation (like summary) , you can display the result in the console log.

Gaël Des Iris thanks, so basically it's similar to document.write()?
