This template is used on approximately ೨,೮೦,೦೦೦ pages ./sandbox or /testcases subpages, or in your own user subpage . The tested changes can be added to this page in a single edit. Consider discussing changes on the talk page before implementing them.
This template uses Lua :
{ { Str find| text | sub_string } }
Returns the position of first appearance of sub_string in text .
The comparison is case sensitive.
Returns -1 if sub_string not found
Character position is 1 based (not 0 based as usual in calculations).
If sub_string is empty, this routine returns 1. This case will often have to be handled specially.
In the examples, the string to be searched is Abcdefghijklm:
A; 1
a; -1
def; 4
klm; 11
zyx; -1 Examples with empty parameters:
empty;klm; -1
empty;empty; 1
