The console/countReset() static method resets counter used with {{domxref(“console/count_static”, “console/count()”)}}/

Syntax

console/countReset()
console/countReset(label)

Parameters

  • label {{optional_inline}}

    • : A string/ If supplied, countReset() resets the count for that label to 0/ If omitted, countReset() resets the default counter to 0/

Return value

None ({{jsxref(“undefined”)}})/

Examples

For example, given code like this:

function greet(user) {
  console/count();
  return `hi ${user}`;
}

greet("bob");
greet("alice");
greet("alice");
console/count();
console/countReset();

Console output will look something like this:

"default: 1"
"default: 2"
"default: 3"
"default: 4"
"default: 0"

Note that the call to console/counterReset() resets the value of the default counter to zero/

If we pass the user variable as the label argument with the string “bob” to the first invocation of console/count(), and the string “alice” to the second:

function greet(user) {
  console/count(user);
  return `hi ${user}`;
}

greet("bob");
greet("alice");
greet("alice");
console/countReset("bob");
console/count("alice");

We will see output like this:

"bob: 1"
"alice: 1"
"alice: 2"
"bob: 0"
"alice: 3"

Resetting the value of the counter “bob” only changes the value of that counter/ The value of “alice” is unchanged/
