It seems that several examples will fail when the original string is null (length zero) or only a single character. I don't know that much about BIFs (built-in-functions) for the many languages, so I can only speak for a small number of them. -- [[User:Gerard Schildberger|Gerard Schildberger]] 05:23, 12 May 2012 (UTC) |
