[1] If a negative value is passed to %d, it will be rounded down to the closest negative integer, so -0.1 becomes -1.

[2] %c is not supported, %d will render as 0 when it is not a number.

Difference with console.dir()

You might ask yourself what's the difference between console.dir() and console.log().

Another useful difference in Chrome exists when sending DOM elements to the console.

Notice:

  • console.log prints the element in an HTML-like tree
  • console.dir prints the element in a JSON-like tree

Specifically, console.log gives special treatment to DOM elements, whereas console.dir does not. This is often useful when trying to see the full representation of the DOM JS object.

There's more information in the Chrome Console API reference about this and other functions.
