Given a string and the task is to replace all lowercase letters from a string with the other characters in JavaScript. There are some approaches to replace the character that are described below:
JavaScript replace() Method: This method searches a string for a defined value, or a regular expression, and returns a new string with the replaced defined value.
Syntax:
string.replace(searchVal, newvalue)
Parameters:
- searchVal: It is a required parameter. It specifies the value or regular expression, that is going to replace by the new value.
- newvalue: It is a required parameter. It specifies the value to be replaced by the search value.
Return value: It returns a new string that matches the pattern specified in the parameters.
Example 1: This example replaces the lowercase letters with . (dot) using replace() method.
Javascript
var str = "WELCOMEiTOgGEEKS" ;
console.log(str.replace(/[a-z]/g, "." ));
|
Example 2: This example replaces the lowercase letters with (‘ ‘)(space) by going to the each character and checking if it is lowercase.
Javascript
var str = "THISiISgGEEKSFORGEEKS!" ;
function gfg_Run() {
let newStr = "" ;
for (let i = 0; i < str.length; i++) {
if (str.charCodeAt(i) >= 97 &&
str.charCodeAt(i) <= 122) {
newStr += ' ' ;
}
else {
newStr += str[i];
}
}
console.log(newStr);
}
gfg_Run();
|
OutputTHIS IS GEEKSFORGEEKS!
Example 3: In this example, we will use reduce method to replace all the lowerCase characters from string.
Javascript
let str = "THISiISgGEEKSFORGEEKS!" ;
function check(x) {
if (x >= 'a' && x <= "z" ) return false ;
return true ;
}
function gfg_Run() {
let newStr = [...str].reduce((accu, x) =>
check(x) ? accu + x : accu + "." , '' );
console.log(newStr);
}
gfg_Run();
|
OutputTHIS.IS.GEEKSFORGEEKS!
