    /**
     * @class String
     *
     * `String` is a global object that may be used to construct String instances.
     *
     * String objects may be created by calling the constructor `new String()`. The `String` object wraps
     * JavaScript's string primitive data type with the methods described below. The global function
     * `String()` can also be called without new in front to create a primitive string. String literals in
     * JavaScript are primitive strings.
     *
     * Because JavaScript automatically converts between string primitives and String objects, you can call
     * any of the methods of the `String` object on a string primitive. JavaScript automatically converts the
     * string primitive to a temporary `String` object, calls the method, then discards the temporary String
     * object. For example, you can use the `String.length` property on a string primitive created from a
     * string literal:
     *
     *     s_obj = new String(s_prim = s_also_prim = "foo");
     *
     *     s_obj.length;       // 3
     *     s_prim.length;      // 3
     *     s_also_prim.length; // 3
     *     'foo'.length;       // 3
     *     "foo".length;       // 3
     *
     * (A string literal is denoted with single or double quotation marks.)
     *
     * String objects can be converted to primitive strings with the `valueOf` method.
     *
     * String primitives and String objects give different results when evaluated as JavaScript. Primitives
     * are treated as source code; String objects are treated as a character sequence object. For example:
     *
     *     s1 = "2 + 2";               // creates a string primitive
     *     s2 = new String("2 + 2");   // creates a String object
     *     eval(s1);                   // returns the number 4
     *     eval(s2);                   // returns the string "2 + 2"
     *     eval(s2.valueOf());         // returns the number 4
     *
     * # Character access
     *
     * There are two ways to access an individual character in a string. The first is the `charAt` method:
     *
     *     return 'cat'.charAt(1); // returns "a"
     *
     * The other way is to treat the string as an array, where each index corresponds to an individual
     * character:
     *
     *     return 'cat'[1]; // returns "a"
     *
     * The second way (treating the string as an array) is not part of ECMAScript 3. It is a JavaScript and
     * ECMAScript 5 feature.
     *
     * In both cases, attempting to set an individual character won't work. Trying to set a character
     * through `charAt` results in an error, while trying to set a character via indexing does not throw an
     * error, but the string itself is unchanged.
     *
     * # Comparing strings
     *
     * C developers have the `strcmp()` function for comparing strings. In JavaScript, you just use the less-
     * than and greater-than operators:
     *
     *     var a = "a";
     *     var b = "b";
     *     if (a < b) // true
     *         print(a + " is less than " + b);
     *     else if (a > b)
     *         print(a + " is greater than " + b);
     *     else
     *         print(a + " and " + b + " are equal.");
     *
     * A similar result can be achieved using the `localeCompare` method inherited by `String` instances.

    //Methods

    /**
     * @method fromCharCode
     * Returns a string created by using the specified sequence of Unicode values.
     *
     * This method returns a string and not a `String` object.
     *
     * Because `fromCharCode` is a static method of `String`, you always use it as `String.fromCharCode()`,
     * rather than as a method of a `String` object you created.
     *
     * Although most common Unicode values can be represented in a fixed width system/with one number (as
     * expected early on during JavaScript standardization) and `fromCharCode()` can be used to return a
     * single character for the most common values (i.e., UCS-2 values which are the subset of UTF-16 with
     * the most common characters), in order to deal with ALL legal Unicode values, `fromCharCode()` alone
     * is inadequate. Since the higher code point characters use two (lower value) "surrogate" numbers to
     * form a single character, `fromCharCode()` can be used to return such a pair and thus adequately
     * represent these higher valued characters.
     *
     * Be aware, therefore, that the following utility function to grab the accurate character even for
     * higher value code points, may be returning a value which is rendered as a single character, but
     * which has a string count of two (though usually the count will be one).
     *
     *     // String.fromCharCode() alone cannot get the character at such a high code point
     *     // The following, on the other hand, can return a 4-byte character as well as the
     *     //   usual 2-byte ones (i.e., it can return a single character which actually has
     *     //   a string length of 2 instead of 1!)
     *     alert(fixedFromCharCode(0x2F804)); // or 194564 in decimal
     *
     *     function fixedFromCharCode (codePt) {
     *         if (codePt > 0xFFFF) {
     *             codePt -= 0x10000;
     *             return String.fromCharCode(0xD800 + (codePt >> 10), 0xDC00 +
     *             (codePt & 0x3FF));
     *         }
     *         else {
     *             return String.fromCharCode(codePt);
     *         }
     *     }
     *
     * The following example returns the string "ABC".

     *     String.fromCharCode(65,66,67)

     */

    //Properties

    /**
     * @property {Number} length
     * Reflects the length of the string.
     *
     * This property returns the number of code units in the string. UTF-16, the string format used by JavaScript, uses a single 16-bit
     * code unit to represent the most common characters, but needs to use two code units for less commonly-used characters, so it's
     * possible for the value returned by `length` to not match the actual number of characters in the string.
     *
     * For an empty string, `length` is 0.
     *
     *     var x = "Netscape";
     *     var empty = "";
     *
     *     console.log("Netspace is " + x.length + " code units long");
     *     console.log("The empty string is has a length of " + empty.length); // should be 0
     */

    //Methods

    /**
     * @method charAt
     * Returns the character at the specified index.
     *
     * Characters in a string are indexed from left to right. The index of the first character is 0, and
     * the index of the last character in a string called `stringName` is `stringName.length - 1`. If the
     * index you supply is out of range, JavaScript returns an empty string.
     *
     * The following example displays characters at different locations in the string "Brave new world":
     *
     *     var anyString="Brave new world";
     *
     *     document.writeln("The character at index 0 is '" + anyString.charAt(0) + "'");

     *     document.writeln("The character at index 3 is '" + anyString.charAt(3) + "'");
     *     document.writeln("The character at index 4 is '" + anyString.charAt(4) + "'");
     *     document.writeln("The character at index 999 is '" + anyString.charAt(999) + "'");
     *
     * These lines display the following:
     *
     *     The character at index 0 is 'B'
     *     The character at index 1 is 'r'
     *     The character at index 2 is 'a'
     *     The character at index 3 is 'v'
     *     The character at index 4 is 'e'
     *     The character at index 999 is ''
     *
     * The following provides a means of ensuring that going through a string loop always provides a whole
     * character, even if the string contains characters that are not in the Basic Multi-lingual Plane.

     *     }
     *
     *     function getWholeChar (str, i) {

     *         }
     *         if (0xD800 <= code && code <= 0xDBFF) { // High surrogate (could change last hex to 0xDB7F
     * to treat high private surrogates as single characters)
     *         if (str.length <= (i+1))  {
     *             throw 'High surrogate without following low surrogate';
     *         }
     *         var next = str.charCodeAt(i+1);
     *         if (0xDC00 > next || next > 0xDFFF) {

    /**
     * @method charCodeAt
     * Returns a number indicating the Unicode value of the character at the given index.
     *
     * Unicode code points range from 0 to 1,114,111. The first 128 Unicode code points are a direct match
     * of the ASCII character encoding.
     *
     * Note that `charCodeAt` will always return a value that is less than 65,536. This is because the
     * higher code points are represented by a pair of (lower valued) "surrogate" pseudo-characters which
     * are used to comprise the real character. Because of this, in order to examine or reproduce the full
     * character for individual characters of value 65,536 and above, for such characters, it is necessary
     * to retrieve not only `charCodeAt(i)`, but also `charCodeAt(i+1)` (as if examining/reproducing a
     * string with two letters). See example 2 and 3 below.
     *
     * `charCodeAt` returns `NaN` if the given index is not greater than 0 or is greater than the length of
     * the string.
     *
     * Backward Compatibility with JavaScript 1.2
     *
     * The `charCodeAt` method returns a number indicating the ISO-Latin-1 codeset value of the character
     * at the given index. The ISO-Latin-1 codeset ranges from 0 to 255. The first 0 to 127 are a direct
     * match of the ASCII character set.

     *
     * Characters in a string are indexed from left to right. The index of the first character is 0, and the index of the last character

     *     "Blue Whale".indexOf("Blue") != -1 // true
     *     "Blue Whale".indexOf("Bloe") != -1 // false

     *     document.write("<P>The index of 'new' from the end is " + anyString.lastIndexOf("new"))    // Displays 6
     *
     * The following example defines two string variables. The variables contain the same string except that the second string contains
     * uppercase letters. The first `writeln` method displays 19. But because the `indexOf` method is case sensitive, the string
     * "cheddar" is not found in `myCapString`, so the second `writeln` method displays -1.
     *
     *     myString="brie, pepper jack, cheddar"
     *     myCapString="Brie, Pepper Jack, Cheddar"
     *     document.writeln('myString.indexOf("cheddar") is ' + myString.indexOf("cheddar"))
     *     document.writeln('<P>myCapString.indexOf("cheddar") is ' + myCapString.indexOf("cheddar"))
     *

     * Used to match a regular expression against a string.

     * The returned {@link Array} has an extra `input` property, which contains the regexp that generated it as a result. In addition,
     * it has an `index` property, which represents the zero-based index of the match in the string.
     *
     * In the following example, `match` is used to find "Chapter" followed by 1 or more numeric characters followed by a decimal point
     * and numeric character 0 or more times. The regular expression includes the `i` flag so that case will be ignored.

    /**
     * @method replace
     * Used to find a match between a regular expression and a string, and to replace the matched substring
     * with a new substring.
     *
     * This method does not change the `String` object it is called on. It simply returns a new string.
     *
     * To perform a global search and replace, either include the `g` flag in the regular expression or if
     * the first parameter is a string, include `g` in the flags parameter.
     *
     * The replacement string can include the following special replacement patterns:
     *
     * | Pattern       | Inserts
     * |:--------------|:--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
     * | `$$`          | Inserts a `$`.
     * | `$&`          | Inserts the matched substring.
     * | `$``          | Inserts the portion of the string that precedes the matched substring.
     * | `$'`          | Inserts the portion of the string that follows the matched substring.
     * | `$n` or `$nn` | Where `n` or `nn` are decimal digits, inserts the _n_th parenthesized submatch string, provided the first
     * |               | argument was a `RegExp` object.
     *
     * You can specify a function as the second parameter. In this case, the function will be invoked after the match has been
     * performed. The function's result (return value) will be used as the replacement string. (Note: the above-mentioned special
     * replacement patterns do not apply in this case.) Note that the function will be invoked multiple times for each full match to be
     * replaced if the regular expression in the first parameter is global.
     *
     * The arguments to the function are as follows:
     *
     * | Possible Name | Supplied Value
     * |:--------------|:--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
     * | `str`         | The matched substring. (Corresponds to `$&` above.)
     * | `p1, p2, ...` | The _n_th parenthesized submatch string, provided the first argument to replace was a `RegExp` object.
     * |               | (Correspond to $1, $2, etc. above.)
     * | `offset`      | The offset of the matched substring within the total string being examined. (For example, if the total string
     * |               | was "`abcd`", and the matched substring was "`bc`", then this argument will be 1.)
     * | `s`           | The total string being examined.
     *
     * (The exact number of arguments will depend on whether the first argument was a `RegExp` object and, if so, how many parenthesized
     * submatches it specifies.)
     *
     * The following example will set `newString` to "`XXzzzz - XX , zzzz`":
     *
     *     function replacer(str, p1, p2, offset, s)
     *     {
     *         return str + " - " + p1 + " , " + p2;
     *     }
     *     var newString = "XXzzzz".replace(/(X*)(z*)/, replacer);
     *
     * In the following example, the regular expression includes the global and ignore case flags which permits replace to replace each
     * occurrence of 'apples' in the string with 'oranges'.
     *
     *     var re = /apples/gi;
     *     var str = "Apples are round, and apples are juicy.";
     *     var newstr = str.replace(re, "oranges");
     *     print(newstr);
     *
     * In this version, a string is used as the first parameter and the global and ignore case flags are specified in the flags
     * parameter.
     *
     *     var str = "Apples are round, and apples are juicy.";
     *     var newstr = str.replace("apples", "oranges", "gi");
     *     print(newstr);
     *
     * Both of these examples print "oranges are round, and oranges are juicy."
     *
     * In the following example, the regular expression is defined in replace and includes the ignore case flag.
     *
     *     var str = "Twas the night before Xmas...";
     *     var newstr = str.replace(/xmas/i, "Christmas");
     *     print(newstr);
     *
     * This prints "Twas the night before Christmas..."
     *
     * The following script switches the words in the string. For the replacement text, the script uses the $1 and $2 replacement
     * patterns.
     *
     *     var re = /(\w+)\s(\w+)/;
     *     var str = "John Smith";
     *     var newstr = str.replace(re, "$2, $1");
     *     print(newstr);
     *
     * This prints "Smith, John".
     *
     * In this example, all occurrences of capital letters in the string are converted to lower case, and a hyphen is inserted just
     * before the match location. The important thing here is that additional operations are needed on the matched item before it is
     * given back as a replacement.
     *
     * The replacement function accepts the matched snippet as its parameter, and uses it to transform the case and concatenate the
     * hyphen before returning.
     *
     *     function styleHyphenFormat(propertyName)
     *     {
     *         function upperToHyphenLower(match)
     *         {
     *             return '-' + match.toLowerCase();
     *         }
     *         return propertyName.replace(/[A-Z]/, upperToHyphenLower);
     *     }
     *
     * Given `styleHyphenFormat('borderTop')`, this returns 'border-top'.
     *
     * Because we want to further transform the _result_ of the match before the final substitution is made, we must use a function.
     * This forces the evaluation of the match prior to the `toLowerCase()` method. If we had tried to do this using the match without a
     *  function, the `toLowerCase()` would have no effect.
     *
     *     var newString = propertyName.replace(/[A-Z]/, '-' + '$&'.toLowerCase());  // won't work
     *
     * This is because `'$&'.toLowerCase()` would be evaluated first as a string literal (resulting in the same `'$&'`) before using the
     * characters as a pattern.
     *
     * The following example replaces a Fahrenheit degree with its equivalent Celsius degree. The Fahrenheit degree should be a number
     * ending with F. The function returns the Celsius number ending with C. For example, if the input number is 212F, the function
     *  returns 100C. If the number is 0F, the function returns -17.77777777777778C.
     *
     * The regular expression `test` checks for any number that ends with F. The number of Fahrenheit degree is accessible to the
     * function through its second parameter, `p1`. The function sets the Celsius number based on the Fahrenheit degree passed in a
     * string to the `f2c` function. `f2c` then returns the Celsius number. This function approximates Perl's `s///e` flag.
     *
     *     function f2c(x)
     *     {
     *         function convert(str, p1, offset, s)
     *         {
     *             return ((p1-32) * 5/9) + "C";
     *         }
     *         var s = String(x);
     *         var test = /(\d+(?:\.\d*)?)F\b/g;

    /**
     * @method substring
     * Returns the characters in a string between two indexes into the string.
     *
     * substring extracts characters from indexA up to but not including indexB. In particular:
     * *   If `indexA` equals `indexB`, `substring` returns an empty string.
     * *   If `indexB` is omitted, substring extracts characters to the end of the string.
     * *   If either argument is less than 0 or is `NaN`, it is treated as if it were 0.
     * *   If either argument is greater than `stringName.length`, it is treated as if it were
     * `stringName.length`.
     *
     * If `indexA` is larger than `indexB`, then the effect of substring is as if the two arguments were
     * swapped; for example, `str.substring(1, 0) == str.substring(0, 1)`.
     *
     * The following example uses substring to display characters from the string "Sencha":
     *
     *     // assumes a print function is defined
     *     var anyString = "Sencha";
     *
     *     // Displays "Sen"
     *     print(anyString.substring(0,3));
     *     print(anyString.substring(3,0));
     *
     *     // Displays "cha"
     *     print(anyString.substring(3,6));
     *     print(anyString.substring(6,3));
     *
     *     // Displays "Sencha"
     *     print(anyString.substring(0,6));
     *     print(anyString.substring(0,10));
     *
     * The following example replaces a substring within a string. It will replace both individual
     * characters and `substrings`. The function call at the end of the example changes the string "Brave
     * New World" into "Brave New Web".
     *
     *     function replaceString(oldS, newS, fullS) {
     *         // Replaces oldS with newS in the string fullS
     *         for (var i = 0; i < fullS.length; i++) {
     *             if (fullS.substring(i, i + oldS.length) == oldS) {
     *                 fullS = fullS.substring(0, i) + newS + fullS.substring(i + oldS.length,
     * fullS.length);
     *             }
     *         }
     *         return fullS;
     *     }
     *
     *     replaceString("World", "Web", "Brave New World");
     *
     * @param {Number} indexA An integer between 0 and one less than the length of the string.
     * @param {Number} indexB (optional) An integer between 0 and the length of the string.
