Lab 2: Parse a String

• Parse the following string
• In bold, print the field name.  Then, print the field value.
• Copy-paste the string into your JavaScript.  Assign it to a variable, called parseString.
• The '*' separates each piece of data.
• Field Order: name, bearcat ID, e-mail, phone number

• Handy methods:
• parseString.substring(beginindex, endindex) to take out part of the string
• parseString.charAt(character) to find the location of a character
• parseString.charAt(character, beginIndex) to find the location of a character after the beginIndex.
• document.write() to print each element on a separate line.  Don't forget to use the <br> tag.
• + to combine the Strings you are printing.
• Slide about substrings:  substring methods
• Hint:  Save the value of the charAt() method to a variable.  Use that method with substring() to find a field.  Then, use that same variable as the beginIndex value in the next charAt() method to find the next occurrence of the asterisk.
• Need Help?
• Advanced: if you have time
• Use the split(token) method to split the name into an array.  Print the first and last names on separate lines.
•  Slide: String.split(), Array.join()
