 Template documentation
Usage
{{Str find|text|sub_string}} = Position of first appearance of sub_string in text.
Examples
In the examples, the string to be searched is "Abcdefghijklm":
- A; 1
 - a; -1
 - def; 4
 - klm; 11
 - zyx; -1
 - empty;klm;-1
 - empty;empty; 1
 
- Case sensitive.
 - Returns -1 if sub_string not found
 - Character position is 1 based (not 0 based as usual in calculations).
 - Warning: if sub_string is empty, then this routine will return 1 !!! This case will often have to be handled specially.
