To convert each character in a string into an array, we can use the assign() method from the global Object object in JavaScript.
Consider a string called Hello! like this,
// random string
const str = "Hello!";
Now to convert each character in this string into an array, let's use the Object.assign() method and
- pass an empty array
[]as the first argument to the method - and the string as the second argument to the method
- the method returns a new array.
It can be done like this,
// random string
const str = "Hello!";
// convert each characters in string to array
const strArr = Object.assign([], str);
console.log(strArr); // ["H", "e", "l", "l", "o", "!"]
Now if you look at the output of the strArr, we can see that the string is successfully converted to an array.
See the above code live in JSBin.
That's all 😃!
