JS Strings
Javscript Strings Reference

JavaScript strings are used for storing and manipulating text content. They can contain zero or more characters within single or double quotes, like "Coding75" or 'Coding75'.

Syntax

String(object)

Example: String Length

In this example, we will return the length of a string.

function stringLength() {
    const str = "Coding75";
    console.log("String Length: " + str.length);
}
 
stringLength();

Output:

String Length: 13

Example: Date Object’s String Value

This example demonstrates how to return the Date() object’s string value.

// Date Object having date and time
const currentDate = new Date();
 
// date object's string value
const currentDate_String = currentDate.toString();
 
console.log("Date Object's String Value: " + currentDate_String);

Output:

Date Object's String Value: Wed Jul 10 2024 06:48:56 GMT+0000 (Coordinated Universal Time)

JavaScript String Properties

A JavaScript property is a member of an object that associates a key with a value. There is no static property in the string, only instance properties.

Instance Property

An instance property is a property that has a new copy for every new instance of the class.

JavaScript String Methods

JavaScript methods are actions that can be performed on objects. There are two types of String methods in JavaScript:

Static Method

If the method is called using the string class itself, then it is called a static method.
