Question

str = \"The Hello World Code!\";
str.replaceBetween(4,9,\"Hi\");
// outputs \"The          


        

Answer 1

There is no such method in JavaScript. But you can always create your own:

String.prototype.replaceBetween = function(start, end, what) {
  return this.substring(0, start) + what + this.substring(end);
};

console.log("The Hello World Code!".replaceBetween(4, 9, "Hi"));
