Trimming the string from both the ends

In this case, we trim the string at both ends using the trim() function.

JavaScript trim() Function: Trim() eliminates whitespace from both ends of a string and produces a new string with no changes to the original. All whitespace characters and all line terminator characters are considered whitespace in this context.

Syntax:

string.trim();

Example: In this example, a variable var is declared and string ” w3wiki ” is given to it. Notice the given string that has whitespace at both ends. The trim() removes the whitespace at both ends. 

Javascript




const word = " w3wiki ";
console.log("Initial String: " + "'" + word + "'");
 
// Trimming the string at both ends
let new_word = word.trim();
console.log("Modified String: " + "'" + new_word + "'");


Output

Initial String: ' w3wiki '
Modified String: 'w3wiki'
