The console is a global object that provides various methods for logging statements, variables, functions, errors, and more. Six lesser-known console methods are compared to Taylor Swift folklore lyrics, highlighting their unique features and uses. The most commonly used method, `console.log`, is often overused, while others like `console.table` provide cleaner output by displaying data in a table format. `console.assert` checks for false conditions and can be used to fix errors, while `console.time` and `console.timeEnd` measure the execution time of an operation. `console.clear` clears the console, and `console.group` and `console.groupEnd` create inline message groups with cleaner output. These methods offer alternative ways to debug and interact with web applications, making them more efficient and effective.
