302 Pointsnot working- Variables I'm following the instructions in the video but for some reason, the programs are not working.
const score = 5; console.log (score);
When opened from the workshop it should display the number 5 in the console but it's blank when I check it. This has happened before and I couldn't figure out why. any recommendations?

230,688 PointsAny time you have trouble with a workspace project, the best way to get help with it is to share a snapshot of your workspace. That link in the last sentence is to a video that explains how.

230,688 PointsWhile no space is "best practice", having it is tolerated by JavaScript and won't cause a problem in itself.
