How to get first character of a string in JavaScript
To get the first character of a string, we can use the charAt()
method in JavaScript.
The first index of a string is 0
.
const str = "helicopter";
const firstCharacter = str.charAt(0);
console.log(firstCharacter); // "h"
Similarly, we can use square brackets []
syntax to get the first character of a string.
const str = "helicopter";
const firstCharacter = str[0];
console.log(firstCharacter); // "h"
