Accessing Characters

Getting single characters

Access individual characters with bracket notation:

let word = "JavaScript"
console.log(word[0])   // "J"
console.log(word[4])   // "S"
console.log(word[100]) // undefined

Indices start at $0$ . The first character is at index $0$ , the second at index $1$ . Accessing beyond the string's length returns undefined, not an error.
