[javascript] How do I create a new line in Javascript?

var i;
for(i=10; i>=0; i= i-1){
   var s;
   for(s=0; s<i; s = s+1){
    document.write("*");
   }
   //i want this to print a new line
   /document.write(?);

}

I am printing a pyramid of stars, I can't get the new line to print.

\n dosen't work. Use html tags

document.write("<br>");
document.write("?");

\n --> newline character is not working for inserting a new line.

    str="Hello!!";
    document.write(str);
    document.write("\n");
    document.write(str);

But if we use below code then it works fine and it gives new line.

    document.write(str);
    document.write("<br>");
    document.write(str);

Note:: I tried in Visual Studio Code.

document.write("\n");

won't work if you're executing it (document.write();) multiple times.

I'll suggest you should go for:

document.write("<br>");

P.S I know people have stated this answer above but didn't find the difference anywhere so :)

You can use below link: New line in javascript

  var i;
for(i=10; i>=0; i= i-1){
   var s;
   for(s=0; s<i; s = s+1){
    document.write("*");
   }
   //i want this to print a new line
   /document.write('<br>');

}

To create a new line, symbol is '\n'

var i;
for(i=10; i>=0; i= i-1){
   var s;
   for(s=0; s<i; s = s+1){
    document.write("*");
   }
   //i want this to print a new line
   document.write('\n');

}

If you are outputting to the page, you'll want to use "<br/>" instead of '/n';

Escape characters in JavaScript

Alternatively, write to an element with the CSS white-space: pre and use \n for newline character.

you can also pyramid of stars like this

for (var i = 5; i >= 1; i--) {
     var py = "";
     for (var j = i; j >= 1; j--) {
         py += j;

     }
     console.log(py);
 }

how about:

document.write ("<br>");

(assuming you are in an html page, since a line feed alone will only show as a space)

In html page:

document.write("<br>"); 

but if you are in JavaScript file, then this will work as new line:

document.write("\n");

If you are using a JavaScript file (.js) then use document.write("\n");. If you are in a html file (.html or . htm) then use document.write("<br/>");.

Use "\n":

document.write("\n");

Note, it has to be surrounded in double quotes for it to be interpreted as a newline. No it doesn't.

Use a <br> tag to create a line break in the document

document.write("<br>");

Here's a sample fiddle

• http://jsfiddle.net/g6eAF/

your solution is

var i;
for(i=10; i>=0; i= i-1){
   var s;
   for(s=0; s<i; s = s+1){
    document.write("*");
   }
   //printing new line
   document.write("<br>");
}

Try to write your code between the HTML pre tag.

document.writeln() is what you are looking for or document.write('\n' + 'words') if you are looking for more granularity in when the new line is used

For a string I just write "\n" to give me a new line. For example, typing console.log("First Name: Rex" + "\n" + "Last Name: Blythe"); Will type:

First Name: Rex

Last Name: Blythe
