How to split string with character \ - Javascript-CodePudding

I want to split a string into an array of letters, but I have a problem with the special character \ .

The code:

let s = '\op*Bw'.split('');

But I got this result ['o', 'p', '*', 'B', 'w'], that is not correct because I want the \ character too in the array.

CodePudding user response：

Backslashes '\' escape the next character in the sequence. If you need the '\' in the string, your string will need to look like '\\op*Bw'

let s = '\\op*Bw'.split('');
console.log(s) // ['\', 'o', 'p', '*', 'B', 'w']

You can also use String.raw

String.raw`\op*Bw`.split('')
