In previous exercises, we assigned strings to variables. Now, let’s go over how to connect, or concatenate, strings in variables.
The +
operator can be used to combine two string values even if those values are being stored in variables:
let myPet = 'armadillo'; console.log('I own a pet ' + myPet + '.'); // Output: 'I own a pet armadillo.'
In the example above, we assigned the value 'armadillo'
to the myPet
variable. On the second line, the +
operator is used to combine three strings: 'I own a pet'
, the value saved to myPet
, and '.'
. We log the result of this concatenation to the console as:
I own a pet armadillo.
Instructions
1.
Create a variable named favoriteAnimal
and set it equal to your favorite animal.
2.
Use console.log()
to print 'My favorite animal: ANIMAL'
to the console. Use string concatenation so that ANIMAL
is replaced with the value in your favoriteAnimal
variable.
