- Function SubStr(S: String; X, Y: Integer): String;
- { syntax: A:=SUBSTR(S,X,Y)
- operates similarly to the COPY function, but 'Y' represents the
- endpoint, not the length of the substring. This is the method that
- FORTRAN and BASIC use for calling substrings.
- ex.: Writeln(COPY('COMPUTER',2,5));
- output: OMPUT
- Writeln(SUBSTR('COMPUTER',2,5));
- output: OMPU
