In this JavaScript Walkthrough from Learn JavaScript, Functions, Return Statement Explained, on Codecademy, we learn that functions by default return undefined. If we want it to return a value, then it is important that we give our function a return statement. A return statement allows us to return a value from our function. If we create a function without a return value and call the function in a console.log(), then undefined would be logged out. If we give our function a return value, then calling the function in a console.log would log out the return value. Understanding Return Statements in JavaScript is key in developing into a great developer. Make sure to understand how return statements work in JavaScript before moving on. It is helpful in JavaScript, and in many other languages!
