Get last 4 characters of string JavaScript | Example code

  • by

To get the last N or 4 characters of a string, use the slice method on the string in JavaScript. You have to pass the value as a parameter, e.g. str.slice(-4) returns a new string containing the last 4 characters of the original string.
