AppleScript doesn't have a builtin means of matching multiple occurrences of a substring, however one can redefine the existing '''offset''' command to add this functionality:

Line 593:
end offset

or, defining an '''offsets''' function in terms of a more general '''findIndices''':

Bracmat does pattern matching in expressions <code><i>subject</i>:<i>pattern</i></code> and in strings <code>@(<i>subject</i>:<i>pattern</i>)</code>. The (sub)pattern <code>?</code> is a wild card.
<langsyntaxhighlight Bracmatlang="bracmat">( (sentence="I want a number such that that number will be even.")

For this task consider the following strings
<lang java>"abcd".startsWith("ab") //returns true
<syntaxhighlight lang="java">
String string = "string matching";
String suffix = "ing";
</syntaxhighlight>
The most idiomatic way of determining if a string starts with another string is to use the ''String.startsWith'' method.
<syntaxhighlight lang="java">
string.startsWith(suffix)
</syntaxhighlight>
Another way is to use a combination of ''String.substring'' and ''String.equals''
<syntaxhighlight lang="java">
string.substring(0, suffix.length()).equals(suffix)
</syntaxhighlight>
To determine if a string contains at least one occurrence of another string, use the ''String.contains'' method.
<syntaxhighlight lang="java">
string.contains(suffix)
</syntaxhighlight>
A slightly more idiomatic approach would be to use the ''String.indexOf'' method, which will also return the index of the first character.
<syntaxhighlight lang="java">
string.indexOf(suffix) != -1
</syntaxhighlight>
The most idiomatic way of determining whether a string ends with another string is to use the ''String.endsWith'' method.
<syntaxhighlight lang="java">
string.endsWith(suffix);
</syntaxhighlight>
Similarly, a combination of ''String.substring'' and ''String.equals'' can be used.
<syntaxhighlight lang="java">
string.substring(string.length() - suffix.length()).equals(suffix)
</syntaxhighlight>
If you're looking to find the index of each occurrence, you can use the following.
<syntaxhighlight lang="java">
int indexOf;
int offset = 0;
while ((indexOf = string.indexOf(suffix, offset)) != -1) {
System.out.printf("'%s' @ %d to %d%n", suffix, indexOf, indexOf + suffix.length() - 1);
offset = indexOf + 1;
}

In tailspin we don't manipulate strings by character indices but we can still work out the second part. String characters can be streamed and captured in an array, although we prefer to compare in strings, here with a composer (parser).
This has also been crafted to work with strings containing special regex characters by using literal equality.
<langsyntaxhighlight lang="tailspin">

=={{header|Tcl}}==
In this code, we are looking in various ways for the string in the variable <tt>needle</tt> in the string in the variable <tt>haystack</tt>.
<langsyntaxhighlight lang="tcl">set isPrefix [string equal -length [string length $needle] $haystack $needle]
set isContained [expr {[string first $needle $haystack] >= 0}]
set isSuffix [string equal $needle [string range $haystack end-[expr {[string length $needle]-1}] end]]</langsyntaxhighlight>
 
Of course, in the cases where the needle is a glob-safe string (i.e., doesn't have any of the characters “<tt>*?[\</tt>” in), this can be written far more conveniently:
<langsyntaxhighlight lang="tcl">set isPrefix [string match $needle* $haystack]
set isContained [string match *$needle* $haystack]
set isSuffix [string match *$needle $haystack]</langsyntaxhighlight>
 
Another powerful technique is to use the regular expression engine in literal string mode:
<langsyntaxhighlight lang="tcl">set isContained [regexp ***=$needle $haystack]</langsyntaxhighlight>
This can be extended by getting the <code>regexp</code> to return the locations of the matches, enabling the other forms of match to be done:
<langsyntaxhighlight lang="tcl">set matchLocations [regexp -indices -all -inline ***=$needle $haystack]
# Each match location is a pair, being the index into the string where the needle started
# to match and the index where the needle finished matching
