The “use strict” is a directive, which is a literal expression. It introduced in JavaScript 1.8.5. As the name suggests, “use strict” indicates that the code is to be executed in strict mode.
Let us declare strict mode. To declare, add the keyword “use strict” in the beginning. For global scope, declare it at the beginning of the script.
Example
