Template:Str sub old/doc

Usage

{{str sub old|text|start|length}} = Substring of text starting at start and containing length characters. Base 0: the first character is numbered 0, and so on, e.g. {{str sub old|20090624130510|8|2}} returns the 2 characters starting at the 9th, i.e. "13".

Examples

• {{str sub old|1234567|3|2}} Template:Nowrap
• {{str sub old| alphabet|0|5}} Template:Nowrap
• {{str sub old| alphabet|5|999}} Template:Nowrap
• {{str sub old|alph abet|0|5}} Template:Nowrap
• {{str sub old| three words  here |4|10}} Template:Nowrap
