I want a javascript alert that reads, "It's "Hammer" time!"

What is the best code to write this?

    A simple googling would solve your problem. Why waste a question on this? – Krishna Prashatt Jun 06 '18 at 09:45

    What have you tried? Some basic research on "javascript alerts" and "escaping characters" would have explained how to do this. – Lewis Jun 06 '18 at 09:46
  • or alternatively `alert('"It\'s "Hammer" time!"');`, or use template literals. But seriously, you could have researched this in less time than it took to write the question – ADyson Jun 06 '18 at 09:48

Although you could use a string with ' and escape the ', or a string with " and escape the "s, it would be better to use a template literal, which doesn't require escaping of quotes because its delimiter is the backtick:

alert(`"It's "Hammer" time!"`);

For displaying single or double quotes, you can write your code like this alert("\"It's \"Hammer\" time!\"")

Escape the "s other than the ones from the begining and ending.. 

alert("\"It's \"Hammer\" time!\"")

You need to escape it using \

For example:

alert("Something \"here\"!!");

Or use string interpolation, where you can have both without escaping.

alert(`Hello, I'm "nobody"!`);

  • Why the downvote? Is it cause I answered a bad question and support lazy people? Or cause I called it "string interpolation", and not "template literal"? – Ravenous Jun 06 '18 at 10:00
