LEVEL UP with JavaScript! LVL 6

In this blog series tutorial, I will be covering some of the basic JavaScript programming concepts.

This is geared toward beginners and anyone looking to refresh their knowledge.

See the Previous Level Here

Level 6 will cover:

  • String Immutability
  • Use Bracket Notation to Find the Nth Character in a String
  • Use Bracket Notation to Find the Last Character in a String
  • Use Bracket Notation to Find the Nth-to-Last Character in a String

String Immutability

Immutable means a string cannot be altered once assigned. The way we make changes to strings is by using methods to change them. We will go over these methods in another tutorial.

// This returns undefined because the string "Lizard" is immutablelet name = "Lizard";name = "Wizard";console.log(name)undefined

Use Bracket Notation to Find the Nth Character in a String

If we want to find which character of a string is sitting at a particular value, we again use bracket notation with the number position we want to find [Nth].

let player = "Druid";console.log(player[2]);"u"

Use Bracket Notation to Find the Last Character in a String

When we want to find the last character of a string, we can subtract one from the string's length.

let spell = "Fireball";spell[spell.length - 1];"l"

Use Bracket Notation to Find the Nth-to-Last Character in a String

Just as we did before to find the Nth and the last character in a string, we can combine the two to find the last to Nth character.

let enemy = "Goblin Mage";let secondToLastLetter = enemy[enemy.length - 2];console.log(secondToLastLetter);"g"
