SyntaxError when using try/catch with aync/await in NodeJS [closed]

I am a beginner in Node Js. I am not able to figure out why the below code gives syntax error with catch().I have upgraded the Node JS V14. Any help will be appreciated here

async function demoPromise() {
    try {
        let message1 = await myFirstPromise;
        let message2 = await helloPromise();
        console.log(message2);
    } catch ((error) => {
        console.log("Error:" + error.message);
    })
}

(async () => {
    await demoPromise();
})();

Error:

nodejsmarkasyncAwait.js:7
    } catch ((error) => {
             ^

Answer

catch doesn’t expect a function, it’s just a special syntax to detect the error:

try {
  
} catch(error) {

}
