D3.js interpolateString() function

The intepolateString() function in D3.js is used to return the interpolator function between two strings. For each number in string “b” the function finds a number for it in string “a”, then it returns the interpolation of these numbers using Number interpolator function, and the remaining part of string “b” is used as a template.

Syntax:

d3.intepolateString(a, b);

Parameters: It takes two parameters:

  • a: It is a string of characters and numbers.
  • b: It is also a string of characters and numbers.

Returns: It returns the interpolator function.

Below given are a few examples of the above function.

    let interpolatoreFunc=d3.interpolateString(s1, s2);
    /* Note that the string alphabets of string b are
      same as output but the Numbers are changed.*/
    console.log(interpolatoreFunc(0.25))
