Solution Kit
Passwords are strings containing letters, numbers, or characters. For privacy purposes, passwords are vital elements for signing up on websites or many other applications. In several applications, as the characters are entered, they are replaced by some symbol. This can be done by using the following methods, props, or events in our code:
- Super(): We can create a constructor of class and then use the super prop. It calls the constructor of the parent class.
- preventDefault: It is used to prevent an event from happening if it is cancelable. So, whatever default action belongs to an event, will be canceled.
- onChange: This event occurs when there is a change of value in an event. So , this event will happen whenever we enter the new character that is the input change.
- setTimeOut(): This method will be used to set a particular time after which the characters will change into some symbol (based on the website/applications)
- clearTimeOut(): This is used to clear the interval set up by using setTimeOut method.
- render(): This is used to redirect a page.
