how to split the give string in expected output

Question

/* How to split the string and store to two variable only name and email id.*/

  var str = "chris <[email protected]>"
  
  /*expected output`enter code here`
  name     = "chris"
  email_id = "[email protected]" */

Must remove the space and the ( "<>" )return the only string.

You aren't splitting, you're matching. const match = str.match(/(.*)\s*<(.*)>/); then match[1] and match[2] are your name and email. — Niet the Dark Absol

you can use regular expression to remove unwanted characters inside a string and assign it to two different variables as below

var str = "chris <[email protected]>"
const [name,email] = str.split(/<|>/g);

You can use split() the string, replace unwanted values from your string using replace()

var str = "chris <[email protected]>"
var splitedarr=str.split('<');
var name =splitedarr[0];
console.log("name :" + name)
var emailid =splitedarr[1].replace('>','')
console.log("email_id :" +emailid)

I would split the input on the single space occurring after the name and before the email address. Then, take a substring to isolate the email address.

var str = "chris <[email protected]>";
var parts = str.split(/[ ](?=<)/);
var name = parts[0];
var email = parts[1].substring(1, parts[1].length - 1);
console.log("name     = " + name);
console.log("email_id = " + email);
