String Slicing in JS
String slicing means creating a substring from part of another string.
The common pattern is:
string.slice(start, end)The start index is included. The end index is not included.
Basic Example
const fullName = "Bro Code"
const firstName = fullName.slice(0, 3)
const lastName = fullName.slice(4, 8)
const firstChar = fullName.slice(0, 1)
const lastChar = fullName.slice(-1)
console.log(firstName)
console.log(lastName)
console.log(firstChar)
console.log(lastChar)Split Full Name
const fullName = "Broseph Code"
const firstName = fullName.slice(0, fullName.indexOf(" "))
const lastName = fullName.slice(fullName.indexOf(" ") + 1)
console.log(firstName)
console.log(lastName)
