Extract only 300 characters from a body of text and append it with '...', can someone explain why?

Question

Hello,

This code is able to extract only 300 characters from a body of text and append it with '...', can some explain why?

p.textContent = `${movie.description}...`

I am a newbie learning JavaScript, any advise would be appreciated!

regards
Ben

Answer 1

No, the code you showed, append "..." to string with any length of it, it won't extract 300 characters from body of text.

Answer 2

hi there, i have used the code and it extracts the first 300 characters and appends the rest with “...”.
