The substrings are created by breaking the original string at places that match delimiter, the delimiter characters are removed. Returns an array whose elements are the substrings.

Parameter	Type	Description
delimiter	string	Specifies the string to use for delimiting. If delimiter is omitted, the array returned contains one element, consisting of the entire string.
limit	number

Example

Example

string.substr(start, length)

string substring (indexA: number[, indexB: number])
Returns a substring of the given string by extracting characters from indexA up to but not including indexB.
The original string is unchanged. Returns a substring of characters from the given string, starting at indexA and ending with indexB-1.

Parameter	Type	Description
indexA	number	The index to begin extracting.
indexB	number	(Optional) The index at which to end extraction. If omitted, slice extracts to the end of the string.
