Bars Specification 0.1.0 — Transform: slice¶

Category: string · Since: 0.1.0

Extracts a character or substring by offset.

With one argument, returns the single character at offset; with two arguments, returns length characters starting at offset. A negative offset counts from the end of the input. Offsets fully outside the string yield "". length is clamped to the remaining input; a negative length is a degenerate-value soft failure.

Input coercion: string
