String Manipulation

Core functions for handling string length, substrings, modification, and structure.

Core Functions

Function	Method Alias	Description
`Length(s)`	`.Length`	Returns the number of characters in the string.
`SetLength(var s, len)`	`.SetLength(len)`	Resizes the string to `len` characters.
`Copy(s, idx [, len])`	`.Copy(idx [, len])`	Returns a substring starting at 1-based `idx`.
`Delete(var s, idx, len)`	-	Removes `len` characters from string variable `s`.
`Insert(src, var s, idx)`	-	Inserts `src` into string variable `s` at `idx`.
`Pos(sub, s [, offset])`	-	Returns 1-based index of first occurrence.
`RevPos(sub, s)`	-	Returns 1-based index of last occurrence.
`StrFind(s, sub [, from])`	`.IndexOf(sub [, from])`	Returns 1-based index of `sub` in `s`.
`StrDeleteLeft(s, n)`	`.DeleteLeft(n)`	Deletes `n` characters from the left.
`StrDeleteRight(s, n)`	`.DeleteRight(n)`	Deletes `n` characters from the right.
`StrContains(s, sub)`	`.Contains(sub)`	True if `sub` is present in `s`.
`StrBeginsWith(s, sub)`	`.StartsWith(sub)`	True if `s` starts with `sub`.
`StrEndsWith(s, sub)`	`.EndsWith(sub)`	True if `s` ends with `sub`.
`StrCount(sub, s)`	`.Count(sub)`	Returns number of occurrences of `sub` in `s`.
`StrMatches(s, mask)`	`.Matches(mask)`	Wildcard matching (`*` and `?`).

These functions simplify extracting parts of a string relative to a delimiter.

Function	Method Alias	Description
`StrBefore(s, delim)`	`.Before(delim)`	Text before the first occurrence of `delim`.
`StrBeforeLast(s, delim)`	`.BeforeLast(delim)`	Text before the last occurrence of `delim`.
`StrAfter(s, delim)`	`.After(delim)`	Text after the first occurrence of `delim`.
`StrAfterLast(s, delim)`	`.AfterLast(delim)`	Text after the last occurrence of `delim`.
`StrBetween(s, start, stop)`	`.Between(start, stop)`	Text between `start` and `stop` delimiters.
`LeftStr(s, count)`	`.Left(count)`	Returns the first `count` characters.
`RightStr(s, count)`	`.Right(count)`	Returns the last `count` characters.
`MidStr(s, start, len)`	-	Returns `len` characters from `start`.
`SubStr(s, start, len)`	-	Alias for `MidStr`.
`SubString(s, start, end)`	-	Text from `start` to `end` (exclusive of end).

For type conversions (like FloatToStr, IntToStr) and case transformations, see String Transformation.

Function	Method Alias	Description
`StrSplit(s, delim)`	`.Split(delim)`	Splits string into an `array of String`.
`StrJoin(arr, delim)`	`.Join(delim)`	Joins an array into a single string.
`StrArrayPack(arr)`	`.Pack`	Removes empty strings from an array.

var csv := 'apple,banana,cherry';
var fruits := csv.Split(',');
var joined := fruits.Join('; ');
PrintLn(joined);

Result

apple; banana; cherry
