Basic JavaScript - Comparisons with the Logical Or Operator

Tell us what’s happening:
I can’t fully understand the double return statement here. How come the second return statement is not executed even if the first one is ? Does this mean the function is not executing anything else after the If statement if it’s true ?

Your code so far

function testLogicalOr(val) {
  // Only change code below this line

  if (val) {
    return "Outside";
  }

  // Only change code above this line
  return "Inside";
}

testLogicalOr(15);

Once a return is executed, the entire function ends.
(So yes, if the if statement triggers, then the return will run and end the execution of this function)

3

So for each function, there is only one return statement execution possible, correct ?

You can write as many returns as you want but as soon as one runs, the function ends there.
