JavaScript: Concatenate two strings except their first character

JavaScript Basic: Exercise-61 with Solution

Write a JavaScript program to concatenate two strings except for their first character.

Visual Presentation:

Sample Solution:

JavaScript Code:

// Define a function named concatenate with parameters str1 and str2
function concatenate(str1, str2) {
    // Modify str1 to exclude the first character
    str1 = str1.substring(1, str1.length);
    // Modify str2 to exclude the first character
    str2 = str2.substring(1, str2.length);
    // Return the concatenation of modified str1 and str2
    return str1 + str2;
}

 
// Call the function with sample arguments and log the results to the console
console.log(concatenate("PHP", "JS"));
console.log(concatenate("A", "B"));
console.log(concatenate("AA", "BB"));

Output:

HPS

AB

Flowchart:

ES6 Version:

// Define a function named concatenate with parameters str1 and str2
const concatenate = (str1, str2) => {
    // Use substring to get substrings excluding the first characters
    str1 = str1.substring(1);
    str2 = str2.substring(1);
    // Concatenate the modified substrings
    return str1 + str2;
};

// Call the function with sample arguments and log the results to the console
console.log(concatenate("PHP", "JS"));
console.log(concatenate("A", "B"));
console.log(concatenate("AA", "BB"));
