// Chilkat Js console emits CRLF line endings on Windows, and LF line endings on non-Windows.

console.log("Hello %s, %d, %f", "World", 248, 12.05);
// Output: Hello World, 248, 12.05

// If there are more arguments than the number of specifiers, the extra arguments are output, separated by spaces:
console.log('%s:%s', 'foo', 'bar', 'baz');
// Output: foo:bar baz

// If the first argument does not contain a valid format specifier, outputs a string that is the concatenation of all arguments separated by spaces:
console.log(1,2,3);
// Output: 1 2 3

//If only one argument is passed, it is returned as it is without any formatting:
console.log("%% %s");
// Output: %% %s
