Sass String Functions


Sass String Functions

The string functions are used to manipulate and get information about strings.

Sass strings are 1-based. The first character in a string is at index 1, not 0.

The following table lists all string functions in Sass:

Example:
quote(Hello world!)

Example:
str-index("Hello world!", "H")
Result: 1

Example:
str-insert("Hello world!", " wonderful", 6)
