Use String.split with a supplied pattern(defaults to non alpha as a regex) to convert to an Array of Strings and then filter to remove any empty strings.
|
||||
|
||||
```js
|
||||
const stringToArrayOfWords = (str, pattern = /[\W_]+/) => str.split(pattern).filter(Boolean)
|
||||
const stringToArrayOfWords = (str, pattern = /[^a-zA-Z-]+/) => str.split(pattern).filter(Boolean)
|
||||
|
||||
// stringToArrayOfWords("I love javaScript!!") -> ["I", "love", "javaScript"]
|
||||
// stringToArrayOfWords("python, javaScript & coffee") -> ["python", "javaScript", "coffee"]
