[find s x] is equivalent to [find_from s 0 x]. *) val split : string -> string -> string * string (** [split s sep] splits the string [s] between the first occurrence of [sep]. raises [Invalid_string] if the separator is not found. *) val nsplit : string -> string -> string list (** [nsplit s sep] splits the string [s] into a list of strings which are separated by [sep]. [nsplit "" _] returns the empty list. @raise Invalid_string if [sep] is empty string. *) val join : string -> string list -> string (** Same as [concat] *) val slice : ?first:int -> ?last:int -> string -> string (** [slice ?first ?last s] returns a "slice" of the string which corresponds to the characters [s.[first]], [s.[first+1]], ..., [s[last-1]]. Note that the character at index [last] is {b not} included! If [first] is omitted it defaults to the start of the string, i.e. index 0, and if [last] is omitted is defaults to point just past the end of [s], i.e. [length s]. Thus, [slice s] is equivalent to [copy s]. Negative indexes are interpreted as counting from the end of the string. For example, [slice ~last:-2 s] will return the string [s], but without the last two characters. This function {b never} raises any exceptions. If the indexes are out of bounds they are automatically clipped. *) val lchop : string -> string (** Returns the same string but without the first character. does nothing if the string is empty. *) val rchop : string -> string (** Returns the same string but without the last character. does nothing if the string is empty. *) val of_int : int -> string (** Returns the string representation of an int. *) val of_float : float -> string (** Returns the string representation of an float. *) val of_char : char -> string (** Returns a string containing one given character. *) val to_int : string -> int (** Returns the integer represented by the given string or raises [Invalid_string] if the string does not represent an integer.*) val to_float : string -> float (** Returns the float represented by the given string or raises Invalid_string if the string does not represent a float. *) val ends_with : string -> string -> bool (** [ends_with s x] returns true if the string [s] is ending with [x]. *) val starts_with : string -> string -> bool (** [starts_with s x] return true if [s] is starting with [x]. *) val enum : string -> char Enum.t (** Returns an enumeration of the characters of a string.*) val of_enum : char Enum.t -> string (** Creates a string from a character enumeration. *) val map : (char -> char) -> string -> string (** [map f s] returns a string where all characters [c] in [s] have been replaced by [f c]. **) val mapi : (int -> char -> char) -> string -> string (** [map f s] returns a string where all characters [c] in [s] have been replaced by [f i s.\[i\]]. **) val iteri : (int -> char -> unit) -> string -> unit (** Call [f i s.\[i\]] for every position [i] in string *) val fold_left : ('a -> char -> 'a) -> 'a -> string -> 'a (** [fold_left f a s] is [f (...

(f s.[n-1] b) ...))] *) val explode : string -> char list (** [explode s] returns the list of characters in the string [s]. *) val implode : char list -> string (** [implode cs] returns a string resulting from concatenating the characters in the list [cs]. *) val strip : ?chars:string -> string -> string (** Returns the string without the chars if they are at the beginning or at the end of the string. By default chars are " \t\r\n". *) val exists : string -> string -> bool (** [exists str sub] returns true if [sub] is a substring of [str] or false otherwise. *) val replace_chars : (char -> string) -> string -> string (** [replace_chars f s] returns a string where all chars [c] of [s] have been replaced by the string returned by [f c]. *) val replace : str:string -> sub:string -> by:string -> bool * string (** [replace ~str ~sub ~by] returns a tuple constisting of a boolean and a string where the first occurrence of the string [sub] within [str] has been replaced by the string [by]. The boolean is true if a subtitution has taken place. *) (** Return a copy of the argument, without leading and trailing whitespace.
