Split string into equal parts JavaScript
We are required to write a JavaScript function that takes in a string and a number n as two arguments (the number should be such that it exactly divides the length of string). And we have to return an array of n strings of equal length.
For example −
If the string is "helloo" and the number is 3 Our output should be: ["ho", "eo", "ll"]
Here, each substring exactly contains (length of array/n) characters. And each substring is formed by taking corresponding first and last letters of the string alternatively
Let's write the code for this function −
Example
const str = 'helloo';
const splitEqual = (str, n) => {
if(str.length % n !== 0){
return false;
}
const len = str.length / n;
const strArray = str.split("");
const arr = [];
let i = 0, char;
while(strArray.length){
if(i % 2 === 0){
char = strArray.shift();
}else{
char = strArray.pop();
};
if(i % len === 0){
arr[i / len] = char;
}else{
arr[Math.floor(i / len)] += char;
};
i++;
};
return arr;
};
console.log(splitEqual(str, 3));Output
The output in the console will be −
[ 'ho', 'eo', 'll' ]
