String

Strings have many methods attached to them for manipulating text.

struct String
{
	static vararg string Format(string format, ...);

	vararg void AppendFormat(string format, ...);

	string CharAt(int pos) const;
	int    CharCodeAt(int pos) const;
	string Filter();
	int    IndexOf(string substr, int startIndex = 0) const;
	string Left(int len) const;
	uint   Length() const;
	string Mid(int pos = 0, int len = int.Max) const;
	void   Remove(int index, int amount);
	void   Replace(string pattern, string replacement);
	int    RightIndexOf(string substr, int endIndex = int.Max) const;
	void   Split(out array<string> tokens, string delimiter, EmptyTokenType keepEmpty = TOK_KEEPEMPTY) const;
	double ToDouble() const;
	int    ToInt(int base = 0) const;
	void   ToLower();
	void   ToUpper();
	void   Truncate(int newlen);

	deprecated("3.5.1") int LastIndexOf(string substr, int endIndex = int.Max) const;
}

Format

Creates a string using a format string and any amount of arguments.

AppendFormat

Works like Format, but appends the result to the string.

CharAt

Returns the character at pos as a new string.

CharCodeAt

Returns the character at pos as an integer.

Filter

Replaces escape sequences in a string with escaped characters as a new string.

IndexOf

Returns the first index of substr starting from the left at start.

Left

Returns the first len characters as a new string.

Length

Returns the number of characters in this string.

Mid

Returns len characters starting at pos as a new string.

Remove

Removes amount characters starting at index in place.

Replace

Replaces all instances of pattern with replacement in place.

RightIndexOf

Returns the first index of substr starting from the right at end.

Split

Splits the string by each delimiter into tokens. keepEmpty may be either TOK_SKIPEMPTY (the default) or TOK_KEEPEMPTY, which will keep or discard empty strings found while splitting.

ToDouble

Interprets the string as a double precision floating point number.

ToInt

Interprets the string as a base base integer, guessing the base if it is 0.

ToLower

Converts all characters in the string to lowercase in place.

ToUpper

Converts all characters in the string to uppercase in place.

Truncate

Truncates the string to len characters in place.

LastIndexOf

Broken. Use RightIndexOf instead.
