The console output is not displaying after I click "show assistant editor" in the view menu. What do I do?

//: Playground - noun: a place where people can play

import UIKit

var str : String = "Hello, playground"
str = "Hello "

let modernProgrammingLanguage: String = "Swift"

var greeting = str + modernProgrammingLanguage

print("To build an iPhone app we need to learn Swift")

If you have Xcode 7: Press SHIFT + CMD + Y or at the top of the nav bar to the far right, press the 2nd from the right button or on the menu bar go to View -> Debug Area -> Show Debug Area
