The str() function in p5.js is used to convert the given boolean, string and number value into its string representation.

Syntax:

str(value)

Parameters: This function accepts single parameter value which is to be converted into its string representation. This value might be integer, float, string, boolean, negative or positive value and array of values.

Return Value: It returns the converted string representation.

Below programs illustrate the str() function in p5.js:

Example 1: This example uses str() function to convert the given input value into its corresponding string representation.




function setup() { 
   
    // Creating Canvas size
    createCanvas(600, 160); 
   
function draw() { 
       
    // Set the background color 
    background(220); 
     
    // Initializing some values
    let Value1 = 12;
    let Value2 = 12.5;
    let Value3 = -7.9;
    let Value4 = -6;
    let Value5 = "6";
     
    // Calling to str() function.
    let A = str(Value1);
    let B = str(Value2);
    let C = str(Value3);
    let D = str(Value4);
    let E = str(Value5);
       
    // Set the size of text 
    textSize(16); 
       
    // Set the text color 
    fill(color('red')); 
     
    // Getting string representation
    text("String representation of value 12 is: " + A, 50, 30);
    text("String representation of value 12.5 is: " + B, 50, 60);
    text("String representation of value -7.9 is: " + C, 50, 90);
    text("String representation of value -6 is: " + D, 50, 110);
    text("String representation of string '6' is: " + E, 50, 140);


Output:

    let Value2 = false;
    let Value3 = "Geeks";
    let Value4 = [12, 3.6, -9.8, true, false, "Geeks"];
     
    // Calling to str() function.
    let A = str(Value1);
    let B = str(Value2);
    let C = str(Value3);
    let D = str(Value4);
       
    // Set the size of text

    text("String representation of value 'true' is: " + A, 50, 30);
    text("String representation of value 'false' is: " + B, 50, 60);
    text("String representation of value 'Geeks' is: " + C, 50, 90);
    text("String representation of array of values are: " + D, 50, 110);
}
