Manipulating Strings in JavaScript

Hi there,

I'm a beginner in JavaScript and I could really use some help with the following question.

So, let's say I have this string: "AB_CD.1.23.3-609.7.8.EF_HI.XBXB"

The numbers 1.23.3 and 609.7.8 are completely random with two dots separating them.

The string AB_CD is also random but has an underscore in the middle.

And then we have EF_HI.XBXB, another random string with both underscores and dots in between.

My goal is to split this string into two separate strings: AB_CD.1.23.3.EF_HI.XBXB (removing -609.7.8) and AB_CD.6.7.8.EF_HI.XBXB (removing 1.23.3-).

If anyone can assist me with this, I would greatly appreciate it!

Answer №1

It appears that you are new to JavaScript, so I will refrain from using regex in my solution.

Instead, here is a simple solution utilizing the split method:

var text="AB_CD.1.23.3-609.7.8.EF_HI.XBXB"
var text1=text.split('-');
var firsttext=text1[0].split('.')[0];
alert(firsttext+"."+text1[1]);
var secondtext=text1[1].split('.')[3];
alert(text1[0]+"."+secondtext);
