Why the code doesn't show the result in the console?

const singleline = "Here is a string \ shown on just one line"; console.log(singleline);

Hi Akhand,

Are you trying to display the message on multiple lines like so:

const singleline = "Here is a string" + '\n' + "shown on just one line";
console.log(singleline);

I am trying to write any simple code and get the display of output in console

Even const message = "Hello"; Console.log(message);

Even the above code is sufficient for me. Earlier I was getting hello displayed.but now nothing appears.
