OUTPUT STATEMENT IN JAVASCRIPT

In JavaScript, output statements display information to the user or developer. There are various
methods suited to different purposes, including debugging with the developer console, interacting
with the user via pop-up dialogs or directly changing the content of a web page.

Different ways to display output in JavaScript are as follows:

document.write(): The document.write() method writes directly to the HTML document.
It’s usually used for simple output during the loading of the page, but it can overwrite the entire
document if used after the page has loaded.

For example,
document.write("JavaScript is versatile and widely used.");

document.write("It creates interactive web pages.");
The output of the given code is:

JavaScript is versatile and widely used. It creates interactive web pages.

console.log(): The console.log() method is used to display messages or data in the
browser’s console (Developer Tools). It’s commonly used for debugging.
For example,

let message = "Hello, World!";

console.log(message);
The output of the given code is:

Hello, World!

COMPONENTS OF A JAVASCRIPT STATEMENT

The components of a JavaScript statement include expressions, variables, operators and

keywords, which work together to carry out a particular task.
Understanding the components of a JavaScript statement is essential for writing functional
code and building interactive web applications.
