 What effect does calling the `alert` function have?
 
+    In short: alert() interrupts the page to show a message and waits for the user to acknowledge it.
+
+    📢 The message you pass to alert() is displayed to the user.
+
+    ⏸️ JavaScript execution pauses until the user clicks OK.
+
+    🚫 The user can’t interact with the page while the alert is open (it blocks the UI).
+
+
+
 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`.
 
+
+    let myName = prompt("hello what is your name")
+    alert("hi " + myName)
+
+    The prompt function displays a modal dialog that captures user input. The value entered is stored in myName, and alert then displays a greeting that includes that value.

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

+    Explanation:
+    This output indicates that console.log is a function provided by the browser (native code). You are seeing the function itself, not executing it.
+
+
 What output do you get?
 
 Now enter just `console` in the Console, what output do you get back?
 
+    console
+    and press Enter, the Console shows something like:
+
+    console {debug: ƒ, error: ƒ, info: ƒ, log: ƒ, warn: ƒ, …}
+    Explanation:
+    This output shows that console is an object containing multiple methods, such as:
+
+    * log
+    * error
+    * warn
+    * info
+    * debug
+
+    Each of these properties is a function that can be used to output messages to the Console in different ways.
