When I am running Julia in VS Code and I press Shift Enter the line of Code is not evaluated. Help

How do I get VS Code, running with Julia, to evaluate a line of Code? I thought pressing Shift Enter was the way to accomplish evaluating a line of Code.

It worked for me.

Do this.

  1. shutdown VS Code completedly
  2. start up VS Code
  3. write this program

a = 666

  1. save source code to a file example01.jl
  2. open example01.jl in VS Code
  3. put cursor at the end of “a = 666”
  4. Now press Shift-Enter
  5. Go to terminal window in VS Code
  6. type in “a”

Do you get this?

Thank you very much - it worked. I am new to any type of programming so I really appreciate your assistance.

Regards,
Larry
