String.prototype.codePointAt()
Baseline
Widely available
This feature is well established and works across many devices and browser versions. It’s been available across browsers since septiembre de 2015.
El método codePointAt() devuelve un entero no negativo que equivale al valor Unicode code point del carácter.
Sintaxis
str.codePointAt(indice)
Parámetros
indice-
Índice del carácter en la cadena del que se quiere obtener el valor del Unicode code point.
Valor de retorno
Un número que equivale al valor code point del carácter especificado en el índice de la cadena; devuelve undefined si no se encuentra carácter en la posición especifica.
Description
If there is no element at the specified position, undefined is returned. If no UTF-16 surrogate pair begins at pos, the code unit at pos is returned.
Examples
Using codePointAt()
"ABC".codePointAt(1); // 66
"\uD800\uDC00".codePointAt(0); // 65536
"XYZ".codePointAt(42); // undefined
Polyfill
The following extends Strings to include the codePointAt() function as specified in ECMAScript 2015 for browsers not supporting it natively.
