Substring¤
Returns a substring between ‘beginIndex’ (inclusive) and ‘endIndex’ (exclusive). If ‘endIndex’ is 0 (default), it is ignored and the entire remaining string starting with ‘beginIndex’ is returned. If ‘endIndex’ is negative, -endIndex characters are removed from the end.

Parameter¤
Begin index¤
The beginning index, inclusive.
- Datatype:
int - Default Value:

- Datatype:
int - Default Value:
