The Lodash _.explode() method is used to explode a string into an array of characters.
Syntax:
_.explode( String );
Parameters: This method takes single parameter as mentioned above and described below:
- String: This method takes a String to explode.
Return Value: This method returns the generated character array.
Note: This will not work in normal JavaScript because it requires the lodash.js contrib library to be installed. Lodash.js contrib library can be installed using npm install lodash-contrib –save.
Example 1:
Javascript
// Defining lodash contrib variable var _ = require( 'lodash-contrib' ); var a = _.explode( "neveropen" ); console.log( "The generated array is : " , a); |
Output:
The generated array is : ["G", "e", "e", "k", "s", "f", "o", "r", "G", "e", "e", "k", "s"]
Example 2:
Javascript
// Defining lodash contrib variable var _ = require( 'lodash-contrib' ); var a = _.explode( "Computer Science Portal" ); console.log( "The generated array is : " , a); |
Output:
The generated array is : [ "C", "o", "m", "p", "u", "t", "e", "r", " ", "S", "c", "i", "e", "n", "c", "e", " ", "P", "o", "r", "t", "a", "l" ]
