How can you remove the last character from a string?
The simplest solution is to use the slice()
method of the string, passing 2 parameters. THe first is 0, the starting point. The second is the number of items to remove. Passing a negative number will remove starting from the end. This is the solution:
const text = 'abcdef'
const editedText = text.slice(0, -1) //'abcde'
Note that the slice()
method does not modify the original string.
It creates a new string, this is why I assign it to a new variable in the above example.
