Alphabetically sorts the characters in a string.
|
|
|
|
- Use the spread operator (`...`), `Array.prototype.sort()` and `String.prototype.localeCompare()` to sort the characters in `str`.
|
|
- Recombine using `Array.prototype.join()`.
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
const sortCharactersInString = str =>
|
|
[...str].sort((a, b) => a.localeCompare(b)).join('');
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
sortCharactersInString('cabbage'); // 'aabbceg'
|
|
```
