Javascript String - RemoveLoad Educational Academy

String can be enclosed in Single Quotes like ‘john’ or Double Quotes like “john” or backtics (which came into ES6) like `john`.


var first_name ='John';
var last_name="Taylor";
var email=`john@abc.com`;

Note:- backtics is basically used to combined variable value and strings.

Example:- Now you add first_name and last_name along with Hello string.


var full_name=`Hello ${first_name} ${last_name}`;
console.log(full_name);  // Output:- John Taylor

var age=35;

var bool_string=String(bool) // Output:- "true"

2) toString():- toString() is used to convert data into string.


var age =35;
var age_string=age.toString(); // Output "35";

var bool =true;
var bool_string=bool.toString() // Output:- "true"

3) creating a String Object through new keyword and it behaves like Object
