Let’s say we have the following string with special character sequence −
var fullName=" John <----> Smith ";
To separate the above string into substring, use regex and then split(). The syntax is as follows −
var anyVariableName=(/\s*<---->\s*/g); var anyVariableName=yourVariableName.trim().split(yourVariableName);
Following is the complete JavaScript code −
Example
var fullName=" John <----> Smith "; console.log("The Value="+fullName); var regularExpression=(/\s*<---->\s*/g); var seprateName=fullName.trim().split(regularExpression); console.log(seprateName);
To run the above program, you need to use the following command −
node fileName.js.
Here, my file name is demo39.js.
Output
This will produce the following output −
PS C:\Users\Amit\JavaScript-code> node demo39.js The Value= John <----> Smith [ 'John', 'Smith' ]
