rustHow do I find the index of a substring in a string in Rust?
The find()
method of the str
type can be used to find the index of a substring in a string in Rust.
Example code
let s = "Hello World!";
let index = s.find("World");
Output example
Some(6)
The find()
method takes a &str
as an argument and returns an Option<usize>
which is Some(index)
if the substring is found, or None
if it is not found.
Code explanation
let s = "Hello World!";
: This declares a string variables
with the valueHello World!
.let index = s.find("World");
: This calls thefind()
method on thes
string variable, passing in the substringWorld
as an argument.Some(6)
: This is the output of thefind()
method, which isSome(index)
if the substring is found, orNone
if it is not found. In this case, the substringWorld
is found at index 6.
