lastindexof()

Function reports the zero-based index of the last occurrence of a specified string within input string.

If lookup or input string is not of string type - forcibly casts the value to string.

Syntax

lastindexof(source,lookup[,start_index[,length]])

Arguments

• source: input string.
• lookup: string to seek.
• start_index: search start position (optional).
• length: number of character positions to examine (optional).

Returns

Zero-based index position of lookup.

Returns -1 if the string is not found in the input.

In case of irrelevant (less than 0) start_index or length parameter - returns null.

Examples

 print idx1 = lastindexof("/abc/cde/fgh", "/") // lookup found in input string
 , idx2 = lastindexof("/abc/cde/fgh", "/", 1, 6) // lookup found in researched range
 , idx3 = lastindexof("/abc/cde/fgh", "/", 1, 2)  // search starts from index 1, but stops after 2 chars, so full lookup can't be found
 , idx4 = lastindexof("/abc/cde/fgh", "/", 0, 3) // search starts after occurrence of lookup
 , idx5 = lastindexof("/abc/cde/fgh", "/", -1) // invalid input
 , idx6 = lastindexof(1231231, 2) // two first parameters were forcibly cast to strings "1231231" and "2"

idx1 idx2 idx3 idx4 idx5 idx6
