Substitute()

Replaces a matching substring with a new string.

new_string = Substitute(string input_str, string find_str, string repl_str, integer n)

Argument	Contents
input_str	The input string
find_str	The substring to be located and replaced
repl_str	The new substring that is to replace the find_str substring
n	A number indicating which occurrence of find_str is to be replaced. If omitted (null), then all occurences are replaced

A string where the nth occurrence of find_str is replaced with repl_str. If n is omitted, all occurrences of find_str are replaced.

If find_str is not found, or if n is larger than the number of occurences of find_str, then the return string will be identical to the input string.

s = Substitute("input string", "in", "out", 1) // s = "output string"

s = Substitute("input string", "in", "out", ) // s = "output stroutg"
