Why am I ending up seeing the running code on TERMINAL, meanwhile Josh’s code is on OUTPUT?

TERMINAL has got unnecessary things/information.  
I would like to have an output like Josh’s. Like you see the running code only.

Have you tried the Code Runner extension? You can configure it to Run in Terminal, and it won’t include all that extra stuff you circled.

I believe I have tried. Yet it keeps showing the output on TERMINAL, but not on OUTPUT

If you don’t want it to run in the terminal, then in the Code Runner settings uncheck the “Run in Terminal” option. When you run your code, make sure that you have selected “Code” from the OUTPUT dropdown.

With out installing another extension does anyone have fix as to when running a file you don’t get all of this extra information as show in the above picture? Has to be a setting I would think.
