### stringToArrayOfWords
|
|
|
|
Converts a given string into an array of words
|
|
|
|
First create an array of dirt that you want to remove from the string. Then replace each dirt with an empty string. Use `String.split(/[\W_]+/)` to convert the string to an array with the use of regex.
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
const stringToArrayOfWords = str => {
|
|
[".", ",", "?", "!", "& ", "(", ")", "[", "]"].map(d => str = str.split(d).join(""));
|
|
return str.split(/[\W_]+/);
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
// stringToArrayOfWords("I love javaScript!!") -> ["I", "love", "javaScript"]
|
|
// stringToArrayOfWords("python, javaScript & coffee") -> ["python", "javaScript", "coffee"]
|
|
``` |
