This template removes the last word of the first parameter, i.e. the last non-space token after the last space. Use |1= for the first parameter if the string may contain an equals sign (=). By default, words are delimited by spaces, but the optional parameter |sep= can set the separator to any character.
index(string, substring, occurrence) Pick Basic: returns 0 if occurrence of substring is not in string; (positions start at 1) string.indexOf(substring«,startpos«, charcount»») Cobra: returns −1 string first substring string startpos: Tcl: returns −1 (substring⍷string)⍳1: APL: returns 1 + the last position in string: string.find ...

Matches the ending position of the string or the position just before a string-ending newline. In line-based tools, it matches the ending position of any line. Defines a marked subexpression, also called a capturing group, which is essential for extracting the desired part of the text (See also the next entry, \ n ).
Below is a simple grammar, defined using the notation of regular expressions and Extended Backus–Naur form.It describes the syntax of S-expressions, a data syntax of the programming language Lisp, which defines productions for the syntactic categories expression, atom, number, symbol, and list:
Many trim functions have an optional parameter to specify a list of characters to trim, instead of the default whitespace characters. For example, PHP and Python allow this optional parameter, while Pascal and Java do not. With Common Lisp's string-trim function, the parameter (called character-bag) is required.
A snippet of Java code with keywords highlighted in bold blue font. The syntax of Java is the set of rules defining how a Java program is written and interpreted.. The syntax is mostly derived from C and C++.
A string substitution or simply a substitution is a mapping f that maps characters in Σ to languages (possibly in a different alphabet). Thus, for example, given a character a ∈ Σ, one has f(a)=L a where L a ⊆ Δ * is some language whose alphabet is Δ. This mapping may be extended to strings as f(ε)=ε
