NSString indexOf in Objective-C

Question

Is there anything similar to an indexOf function in the NSString objects?

Answer 1

If you want just know when String a contains String b use my way to do this.

#define contains(str1, str2) ([str1 rangeOfString: str2 ].location != NSNotFound)

//using 
NSString a = @"PUC MINAS - BRAZIL";

NSString b = @"BRAZIL";

if( contains(a,b) ){
    //TO DO HERE
}

This is less readable but improves performance
