trim method

The trim method removes spaces from the ends of a string. Most often, this is necessary when the user enters any values: he can accidentally stick extra spaces - and our task is to clear the entered text from them.

Syntax

string.trim();

Example

Let's remove trailing whitespaces from a string:

let str = ' abcde '; console.log(str.trim());

The code execution result (the spaces are gone):

'abcde'
