5,788 PointsHow and why is the log of the processSale function shown in that way?
In Challenge 2 at the end of the challenge function processSale () is run by referring it in the console.log()
"console.log("Total sale: $" + processSale(product, 3));"
even though in the code the function is referred after the "Total sale..." part we can see in the console that the log "3 chairs were sold" is print before the "Total sale..." part. Can anyone please explain that behavior?
