Remove Character Combination from string using JavaScript

To remove a specific character combination from a string in JavaScript, you can use various methods. One way is to use regular expressions with the replace() method. Here’s an example.

function removeCharacterCombination(inputString, combination) {
  const regex = new RegExp(combination, 'g');
  return inputString.replace(regex, '');
}

// Example usage:
const originalString = 'Hello, (remove this) world! (remove this too)';
const modifiedString = removeCharacterCombination(originalString, '\\(remove this\\)');
console.log(modifiedString); // Output: "Hello,  world! (remove this too)"

In this example, the function removeCharacterCombination takes two parameters: ,inputString which is the original string, and combination, which is the character combination you want to remove. It creates a regular expression using the RegExp constructor with the ‘g’ flag to match all occurrences of the combination in the input string. The replace() method then replaces all matched occurrences with an empty string, effectively removing them from the string.

Note that in the removeCharacterCombination function, we escape special characters in the combination string by using double backslashes (\\). For example, in regular expressions, parentheses have a special meaning, so we escape them as \\( and \\) to match them literally.
