// the substr() C++ example

#include <string>

#include <iostream>

using namespace std;

 

int main(void)

{

string str1("Testing the substr()");

 

cout<<"str1 string is: "<<str1<<endl;

cout<<"\nOperation: str1.substr(4, 7)"<<endl;

 

basic_string <char> str2 = str1.substr(4, 7);

cout<<"The substring str1 copied is: "<<str2<<endl;

cout<<"\nOperation: str1.substr()"<<endl;

basic_string <char> str3 = str1.substr();

cout<<"The default str3 substring is: "<<str3

<<"\nwhich is the original string."<<endl;

 

return 0;

}

 

Output example:

 

str1 string is: Testing the substr()

 

Operation: str1.substr(4, 7)

The substring str1 copied is: ing the

 

Operation: str1.substr()

The default str3 substring is: Testing the substr()

which is the original string.
