Reversing a String in JavaScript

Problem: I needed to reverse a string in JavaScript. There are several approaches to achieve this, and I found two efficient methods using JavaScript's split(), reverse(), join(), and reduceRight()

Solution: Implemented two methods to reverse a string

//Method 1
const string = "Hello, World!";
let reversedString = string.split('').reverse().join('');
console.log(reversedString); // "!dlroW ,olleH"

//Method 2
reversedString = string
   .split('')
   .reduceRight((acc, char) => acc + char);

console.log(reversedString); // "!dlroW ,olleH"

Keywords: JavaScript string reversal, reverse string methods, split and reverse, reduceRight for string reversal, string manipulation, JavaScript string methods, reverse a string
