JavaScript Strings
JavaScript strings are for storing and manipulating text.
A JavaScript string is zero or more characters written inside quotes.
You can use single or double quotes.

<p>The slice() method extract a part of a string
and returns the extracted parts in a new string:</p>
<script>
let str = "vivekanandainstitute";
document.write(str.slice(7,13)); //str starts from 0 index,
slice will not include the end index value
document.write("<br>"+str.slice(-1));//last char
</script></body></html>

The replace() method does not change the string it is called on.
The replace() method returns a new string.
The replace() method replaces only the first match
By default, the replace() method replaces only the first match.
By default, the replace() method is case sensitive. Writing MICROSOFT (with upper-case) will not
work.
