How to trim a string to N chars in Javascript?

Question

How can I, using Javascript, make a function that will trim string passed as argument, to a specified length, also passed as argument. For example:

var strin

I think that you should use this code :-)

    // sample string
            const param= "Hi you know anybody like pizaa";

         // You can change limit parameter(up to you)
         const checkTitle = (str, limit = 17) => {
      var newTitle = [];
      if (param.length >= limit) {
        param.split(" ").reduce((acc, cur) => {
          if (acc + cur.length <= limit) {
            newTitle.push(cur);
          }
          return acc + cur.length;
        }, 0);
        return `${newTitle.join(" ")} ...`;
      }
      return param;
    };
    console.log(checkTitle(str));

// result : Hi you know anybody ...
