JavaScript: Working with strings

String is a collection of characters. Unlike other languages, JavaScript don’t have any data type to represent character.

How to define a string?

Enclose collection of characters in single quotes (or) double quotes.

var str1 = "Hello World";

var str2 = 'Hello World';

You can also create string by using String object.

var str3 = new String("Hello World");

string.html

<!DOCTYPE html>

<html>

<head>
    <title>strings</title>
</head>

<body>
    <script type="text/javascript">
        var str1 = "Good Morning";
        var str2 = 'Good Afternoon';
        var str3 = new String("Good Night");

        document.write(str1 + "<br />");
        document.write(str2 + "<br />");
        document.write(str3 + "<br />");
    </script>
</body>

</html>
