Lesson: 16 | Strings

Notes

A JavaScript string is a collection of characters written inside quotes.

let firstName = "Will";

You can use single or double quotes:

let lastName = 'Smith';

You can use quotes inside a string, as long as they don't match the quotes surrounding the string:

let fullName= "My fullname is 'Will Smith'";

To find the length of a string, use the built-in length property:

let fullName= "Will Smith";

document.write(fullName.length);

Output: 10

The backslash (\) escape character turns special characters into string characters:

let text = "We are the so-called \"Vikings\" from the north.";

The sequence \\ inserts a backslash in a string:

let text = "The character \\ is called backslash.";
