String.prototype.concat()

The concat() method concatenates the string arguments to the calling string and returns a new string.

Syntax​

concat(str1)
concat(str1, str2)
concat(str1, str2, /* …, */ strN)

Parameters​

  • strN
    • : One or more strings to concatenate to str.

Return value​

A new string containing the combined text of the strings provided.

Description​

The concat() function concatenates the string arguments to the calling string and returns a new string. Changes to the original string or the returned string don't affect the other.

If the arguments are not of the type string, they are converted to string values before concatenating.

The concat() method is very similar to the addition/string concatenation operators (+, +=), except that concat() coerces its arguments directly to strings, while addition coerces its operands to primitives first. For more information, see the reference page for the + operator.
