Features

• concat: Combine an arbitrary number of strings into a single string.
  • Example: ["123","456","789] → "123456789"
• find: Get a list of indexes for instances of a string. You can also go in reverse and limit the number of results.
  • Example: {String:"Looking for the last 'o' in this sentence", Find:"o", n:-1} → [22]
• replace: Replace instances of a string with another string. You can also go in reverse and limit the number of replacements.
  • Example: {String:"Bad example", Find:"Bad", Replace:"Great"} → "Great example"
• to_uppercase / to_lowercase: Convert a string to uppercase or lowercase. Choose between a fast and a full version, the latter supporting the entire Unicode range.
  • Example: "This is uppercase" → "THIS IS UPPERCASE"
• insert: Insert a string at a specific index.
  • Example: {String:"This is cool", Insertion:" really", Index:7} → "This is really cool"
• to_string: Convert any data storage entry to a string.
  • Example: 127b → "127"
• to_number: Convert a stringified number to a number.
  • Example: "512" → 512
