Confirm the Ending: regex literal vs. regex constructor

JavaScript

Tell us what’s happening:

I landed this solution, using a regex constructor. I was wondering if possible to translate that into a regex literal?? I couldn’t do it.

Your code so far


function confirmEnding(str, target) {
  let strRegex = new RegExp(""+target+"$") // e. g. Why let strRegex = /"+target+"$/ doesn't work
  let x = str.match(strRegex);
  return str.match(strRegex) == target ? true : str.match(strRegex) != target ? false : false
  
}

console.log(confirmEnding("Open sesame", "same"))//true
console.log(confirmEnding("Connor", "n"))//false

You need to dynamically build the Regex, so no.
