undefined is a {{Glossary("primitive")}} value automatically assigned to {{glossary("variable", "variables")}} that have just been declared, or to formal {{Glossary("Argument","arguments")}} for which there are no actual arguments.

Example

js
let x; // create a variable but assign it no value

console.log(`x's value is ${x}`); // logs "x's value is undefined"
