Output with Variables

Part of the Fundamentals section of Coddy's JavaScript journey. Lesson 29 of 77.

As of now we learned how to print simple strings, but sometimes we need to insert variable values into the string.

For example:

let age = 10;
console.log("His age is: age");

This will print "His age is: age" instead of "His age is: 10"

To make it work, we will use template literals:

let age = 10;
console.log(`His age is: ${age}`);

This prints "His age is: 10"

We use backticks `` instead of quotation marks "" and inside the string wherever we put curly braces {} with a dollar sign $ before it, it will insert the value of what is written inside it.
