// The standard library's `strings` package provides many
// useful string-related functions. Here are some examples
// to give you a sense of the package.

// it a lot below.
var p = fmt.Println

// Here's a sample of the functions available in
// `strings`. Note that these are all functions from
// package, not methods on the string object itself.
// This means that we need pass the string in question
// as the first argument to the function.
p("Contains: ", s.Contains("test", "es"))
p("Count: ", s.Count("test", "t"))
p("HasPrefix: ", s.HasPrefix("test", "te"))

p("Index: ", s.Index("test", "e"))

p("Repeat: ", s.Repeat("a", 5))

// You can find more functions in the [`strings`](http://golang.org/pkg/strings/)

// Not part of `strings` but worth mentioning here are
// the mechanisms for getting the length of a string
// and getting a character by index.
p("Len: ", len("hello"))
