for (i = 1000; i > 0; i--) { sArr.push("String concatenation. "); } str = sArr.join("");
Array reduce
for (i = 1000; i > 0; i--) { sArr[i] = "String concatenation. "; } str = sArr.reduce((a, v) => a += `${v} `, '');
Array reduce trim
for (i = 1000; i > 0; i--) { sArr[i] = "String concatenation. "; } str = sArr.reduce((a, v) => a += `${v} `, '').trim();
