Open a new window in Chrome, right click an empty space on the page, select **Inspect** from the dropdown, then locate the **Console** tab.

Voila! You now have access to the [Chrome V8 Engine](https://www.cloudflare.com/en-gb/learning/serverless/glossary/what-is-chrome-v8/).
Just like the Node REPL, you can input JavaScript code into the Console tab and the V8 engine will execute it.

Let's try an example.

In the Chrome console, invoke the function `alert` with one argument, the string `"Hello world!"`;

What effect does calling the `alert` function have?

Now try invoking the function `prompt` with a string input of `"What is your name?"` - store the return value of your call to `prompt` in an variable called `myName`.

What effect does calling the `prompt` function have?
What is the return value of `prompt`?

## Objects

In this activity, we'll explore some additional concepts that you'll encounter in more depth later on in the course.

Open the Chrome devtools Console, type in `console.log` and then hit enter

What output do you get?

Now enter just `console` in the Console, what output do you get back?

Try also entering `typeof console`

Answer the following questions:

What does `console` store?
What does the syntax `console.log` or `console.assert` mean? In particular, what does the `.` mean?

# 🧭 Guide to Sprint 2 exercises

> https://curriculum.codeyourfuture.io/javascript-fundamentals/sprints/2/prep/

> [!TIP]
> You should always do the prep work _before_ attempting the coursework.
> The prep shows you _how_ to do the coursework.
> There is often a step by step video you can code along with too.
> Do the prep.

This README will guide you through the different sections for this week.

## 1 Exercises

In this section, you'll have a short program and task. Some of the syntax may be unfamiliar - in this case, you'll need to look things up in documentation.

https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript

## 2 Errors

In this section, you'll need to go to each file in `errors` directory and run the file with node to check what the error is. Your task is to interpret the error message and explain why it occurs. The [errors documentation](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Errors) will help you figure out the solution.

## 3 Interpret

In these tasks, you have to interpret a slightly larger program with some syntax / operators / functions that may be unfamiliar.

You must use documentation to make sense of anything unfamiliar - learning how to look things up this way is a fundamental part of being a developer!

You can also use `console.log` to check the value of different variables in the code.

https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript

## 4 Explore - Stretch 💪

This stretch activity will get you to start exploring new concepts and environments by yourself. It will do so by prompting you to reflect on some questions.

// Below are the steps for how BMI is calculated

// For example, if you weigh 70kg (around 11 stone) and are 1.73m (around 5 feet 8 inches) tall, you work out your BMI by:

// squaring your height: 1.73 x 1.73 = 2.99
// dividing 70 by 2.99 = 23.41

// It should return a string of their Body Mass Index to 1 decimal place
