Substrings

Class string provides member function substrm for retrieving a substring from a string. The result is a new string object that is copied from the source string. Figure 18.3 demonstrates substr.

The program declares and initializes a string on line 12. Line 16 uses member function substr to retrieve a substring from string1. The first argument specifies the beginning subscript of the desired substring; the second argument specifies the substring's length.
