| Executing an expression |
| </h1> |
| <p> |
| Executing an expression evaluates an expression but does not display a result. |
| </p> |
| <p> |
| If you select the expression to execute and click the <strong>Execute</strong> button in the toolbar, no result is |
| displayed, but the code is executed. |
| </p> |
| <p> |
| For example, if you type and highlight <code>System.out.println("Hello World")</code>, and click the <strong>Execute</strong> button, <em>Hello World</em> |
| appears in the Console view, but no result is displayed in the scrapbook editor or the Expressions view. |
