Lodash _.explode() Method

Last Updated : 29 Sep, 2020

The Lodash _.explode() method is used to explode a string into an array of characters.

Syntax:

_.explode( String );

Parameters: This method takes single parameter as mentioned above and described below:

String: This method takes a String to explode.

Return Value: This method returns the generated character array.

Note: This will not work in normal JavaScript because it requires the lodash.js contrib library to be installed. Lodash.js contrib library can be installed using npm install lodash-contrib –save.

Example 1:

Javascript

// Defining lodash contrib variable  
var _ = require('lodash-contrib');  
  
var a  = _.explode( "GeeksforGeeks" );  
    
console.log("The generated array is : ", a);

Output:

The generated array is :
["G", "e", "e", "k", "s", "f", "o", "r", "G", "e", "e", "k", "s"]

Example 2:

Javascript

// Defining lodash contrib variable  
var _ = require('lodash-contrib');  
  
var a  = _.explode( "Computer Science Portal" );  
    
console.log("The generated array is : ", a);

Output:

The generated array is : [
    "C", "o", "m", "p", "u", "t", "e", "r", 
    " ", "S", "c", "i", "e", "n", "c", "e", 
    " ", "P", "o", "r", "t", "a", "l"
]
