JS_MakeStringImmutable
a dependent string (see js_newdependentstring) is a substring of another (growable, dependent, or immutable) string.
... in memory it is represented as a pointer to the other string and a pair of integers for the substring's starting point and length, rather than as a separate copy of all the characters.
... this makes the substring operation, and regular expression matches, faster.

Running Automated JavaScript Tests
another common use case is to run just one test, or all the tests in just one directory: jstests.py path_to_js_shell test_path_substring [ test_path_substring_2 ...
... ] this runs all the tests whose paths contain test_path_substring.
... thus, you can run one test by giving its filename, or any substring that is a substring of that test filename only.

SVGTextContentElement - Web APIs
svgtextcontentelement.getsubstringlength() returns a float representing the computed length of the formatted text advance distance for a substring of text within the element.
... note that this method only accounts for the widths of the glyphs in the substring and any extra spacing inserted by the css 'letter-spacing' and 'word-spacing' properties.
...because the relationship between characters and glyphs is not one-to-one, only the first character of the relevant typographic character is returned svgtextcontentelement.selectsubstring() selects text within the element.

Intl.Locale.prototype.baseName - JavaScript
the intl.locale.prototype.basename property returns a substring of the locale's string representation, containing core information about the locale.

RegExp.$1-$9 - JavaScript
the legacy regexp $1, $2, $3, $4, $5, $6, $7, $8, $9 properties are static and read-only properties of regular expressions that contain parenthesized substring matches.
... the number of possible parenthesized substrings is unlimited, but the regexp object can only hold the first nine.
... you can access all parenthesized substrings through the returned array's indexes.

String - JavaScript
some of the most-used operations on strings are to check their length, to build and concatenate them using the + and += string operators, checking for the existence or location of substrings with the indexof() method, or extracting substrings with the substring() method.
... string.prototype.split([sep [, limit] ]) returns an array of strings populated by splitting the calling string at occurences of the substring sep.
... string.prototype.substring(indexstart [, indexend]) returns a new string containing characters of the calling string from (or between) the specified index (or indeces).

when called, it always returns a random number between 0 and 1: let mynumber = math.random(); the browser's built-in string replace() function however needs two parameters — the substring to find in the main string, and the substring to replace that string with: let mytext = 'i am a string'; let newstring = mytext.replace('string', 'sausage'); note: when you need to specify multiple parameters, they are separated by commas.
