We are required to write a JavaScript function that takes in a string that may contain some backward slashes. The function should return a new string with all the backward slashes replaced with forward slashes.
Let’s say the following is our string −
const str = 'Th/s str/ng /conta/ns some/ forward slas/hes';
Example
Following is the code −
const str = 'Th/s str/ng /conta/ns some/ forward slas/hes'; const invertSlashes = str => { let res = ''; for(let i = 0; i < str.length; i++){ if(str[i] !== '/'){ res += str[i]; continue; }; res += '\\'; }; return res; }; console.log(invertSlashes(str));
Output
This will produce the following output in console −
Th\s str\ng \conta\ns some\ forward slas\hes
