How do I replace a character at a particular index in JavaScript?

I have a string, let\'s say Hello world and I need to replace the char at index 3. How can I replace a char by specifying a index?

var str = \"h         


        

Answer 1

Work with vectors is usually most effective to contact String.

I suggest the following function:

String.prototype.replaceAt=function(index, char) {
    var a = this.split("");
    a[index] = char;
    return a.join("");
}

Run this snippet:

String.prototype.replaceAt=function(index, char) {
    var a = this.split("");
    a[index] = char;
    return a.join("");
}

var str = "hello world";
str = str.replaceAt(3, "#");

document.write(str);
