#

val string_after : string -> int -> string

string_after s n returns the substring of s that is after character n

#

val quote : string -> string

equivalent to Str.quote

#

val split : ?max:int -> string -> on:char -> string list

split ?max s ~on splits s on every on occurence upto max number of items if max is specified. max is assumed to be a small number if specified. To not cause stack overflows

#

val full_split : string -> on:char -> string list

full_split s ~on will split s on every occurence of on but will add the separators between the tokens. Maintains the invariant:

String.concat (full_split s ~on) =s

#

val trim_left : string -> string

Trims spaces on the left of the string

#

val split_trim_left : string -> on:string -> trim:string -> string list

split_strim_right s ~on ~trim splits s on every character in on. Characters in trim are trimmed from the left of every result element

#

val of_char : char -> string

#

val of_list : char list -> string

#

val to_list : string -> char list

#

val to_array : string -> char array

#

val of_array : char array -> string

#

val find_from : ?start:int -> string -> pattern:string -> int option

#

val replace_all : string -> pattern:string -> with_:string -> string

#

val replace_all_assoc : string -> (string * string) list -> string

#

val cut : string -> on:string -> (string * string) option

String.cut on s is either the pair Some (l,r) of the two (possibly empty) substrings of s that are delimited by the first match of the non empty onarator string on or None if on can't be matched in s. Matching starts from the beginning of s.

The invariant l ^ on ^ r = s holds.

Raises Invalid_argument if on is the empty string.

#

val rcut : string -> on:string -> (string * string) option

String.rcut on s is like cut but the matching is done backwards starting from the end of s.

Raises Invalid_argument if on is the empty string.
