Lodash is a JavaScript library that works on the top of underscore.js. Lodash helps in working with arrays, strings, objects, numbers, etc.

The _.escape() method is used to convert the characters “&”, “<“, “>”, ‘”‘, and “‘” of given string into their corresponding HTML entities.

Syntax:

_.escape([string=''])

var str1 = _.escape("Geeks << for >> Geeks");
console.log(str1);

var str2 = _.escape("GFG && Geeks");
console.log(str2);
