Frequently Asked Questions
- How are positions counted?
- Start position is 0-based: 0 = first character, 1 = second, etc. Length is the number of characters to take. Alternatively use start and end index.
- What if start is beyond the text?
- You get an empty string. If start + length exceeds the end, you get from start to the end of the text.
- Can I use negative indices?
- Depending on implementation, negative start might mean 'from end'; e.g. -1 as last character. Check the tool's options.
