None

Examples[edit]

//echo -a $mid(abcdefghij,2,3)
returns 3 characters beginning at position 2
//echo -a $mid(abcdefghij,2)
//echo -a $mid(abcdefghij,2,9999)
both return ALL characters beginning at position 2. Omitting N avoids the need to use N as a too-large number like 9999
//echo -a $mid(abcdefghij,-6,2)
returns 2 characters beginning at position 6th from the end. Is equivalent to:
//echo -a $left($right(abcdefghij,6) ,2)
//echo -a $mid(abcdefghij,-6)
