Extract substring from a string

Question

what is the best way to extract a substring from a string in android?

Answer 1

substring(int startIndex, int endIndex)

If you don't specify endIndex, the method will return all the characters from startIndex.

startIndex : starting index is inclusive

endIndex : ending index is exclusive

Example:

String str = "abcdefgh"

str.substring(0, 4) => abcd

str.substring(4, 6) => ef

str.substring(6) => gh
