The <script> tag is used to define a client-side script (JavaScript).

The <script> element either contains scripting statements, or it points to an external script file through the src attribute.

The script tags are two important attributes −

  • Type − This attribute is what is now recommended to indicate the scripting language in use and its value should be set to “text/javascript”.
  • Language − The basic form of the language attribute is very easy to implement. Simply shove in the keyword “language=”, followed by “JavaScript“, into your <script> tag.

JavaScript Comments

The purpose of a comment is to describe or explain the program:-

JavaScript uses C style  and C++ style comments for both single-line and block comments.

A single comment starts with two forward slashes. (//).

A block comment starts with a forward slash and asterisk (*/) and closing tag (/*).
