How to useLoop through characters in Javascript

This method involves checking each character of the string individually. We loop through each character and verify if it’s either ‘0’ or ‘1’. If we encounter any other character, we conclude that the string is not a binary string.

Example: This example shows the implementation of the above-explained approach.

Javascript




function isBinaryString(str) {
 
    // Loop through each character of the string
    for (let i = 0; i < str.length; i++) {
     
        // If any character is not
        // '0' or '1', return false
        if (str[i] !== '0' && str[i] !== '1') {
            return false;
        }
    }
     
    // If all characters are
    // '0' or '1', return true
    return true;
}
console.log(isBinaryString("101010"));
console.log(isBinaryString("10102"));


Output

true
false

Check if a Given String is Binary String or Not in JavaScript

Binary strings are sequences of characters containing only the digits 0 and 1. Other than that no number can be considered as Binary Number. We are going to check whether the given string is Binary or not by checking it’s every character present in the string.

Example:

Input: "101010"
Output: True, binary string
Input: "110211"
Output: Falee,
Explanation: This input has "2" in string and that is not a binary number.

Approach 1: Using Regular Expression

Regular expressions are patterns used to match character combinations in strings. In this approach, we use a regular expression pattern that matches strings containing only ‘0’s and ‘1’s. If the string matches this pattern, it is a binary string....
