Strings

String.prototype.*

None of the string methods modify this – they always return fresh strings.

• charAt(pos: number): string ^ES1

  Returns the character at index pos, as a string (JavaScript does not have a datatype for characters). str[i] is equivalent to str.charAt(i) and more concise (caveat: may not work on old engines).

• How long will it take to deploy my first change? To become productive? To understand the codebase?
• What kind of equipment will I be provided? Will the company pay/reimburse me if I want something specific?

/* So how does this work?
I'm using ANSI escape sequences to control the behavior of the terminal while
cat is outputting the text. I deliberately place these control sequences inside
comments so the C++ compiler doesn't try to treat them as code.*/

/*The commands in the fake code comment move the cursor to the left edge and
clear out the line, allowing the fake code to take the place of the real code.
And this explanation uses similar commands to wipe itself out too. */
