How to give input to replace() when the string is present in an array

Question

I have to replace the special characters in my string with underscore. replace() function is used to do it . I know that.

My string is "545123_Claims#Claims#Claims000117".

But the issue is that replace() accepts sting as input.

Actually my string is in an array like filArr= ["545123_Claims#Claims#Claims000117"].

So how can I replace the special character in thisstring which is inside an array?

My string is "`545123_Claims#Claims#Claims000117`". Value? – Mikhail Zhuikov Jun 21 '19 at 08:25 — Mikhail Zhuikov, Jun 21 '19 at 08:25
you can use regex to replace `string.replace(/[_#]/g,'')` – Akash sharma Jun 21 '19 at 08:29 — Akash sharma, Jun 21 '19 at 08:29
`newStr = filArr[0].replace(...)` – mplungjan Jun 21 '19 at 08:34 — mplungjan, Jun 21 '19 at 08:34

You could map the replaced strings by taking a function.

const replacementFn = string => string.replace(/xxx/, 'yyy');

filArr = fillArr.map(replacementFn);
