Num Methods Examples Links(Mozilla)
1 .fromCharCode() String.fromCharCode(65, 66, 67); // "ABC" Link
2 .charAt() var anyString = 'AB'; console.log(anyString.charAt(0)); //'A' console.log(anyString.charAt(1)); //'B' Link
3 .charCodeAt() 'ABC'.charCodeAt(0); // returns 65 Link
4 .concat() var hello = 'Hello, '; console.log(hello.concat('Kevin', ' have a nice day.')); /* Hello, Kevin have a nice day. */ Link
5 .endsWith() var str = 'To be, or not to be, that is the question.'; 
      console.log(str.endsWith('question.')); // true
