std:string

std:string

std:string provides explicit string helpers.

import String from 'std:string'

Representative API

String.length = (value: String): Number
String.uppercase = (value: String): String
String.lowercase = (value: String): String
String.trim = (value: String): String
String.split = (separator: String, value: String): String[]
String.join = (separator: String, values: String[]): String
String.startsWith = (prefix: String, value: String): Boolean
String.endsWith = (suffix: String, value: String): Boolean
String.contains = (part: String, value: String): Boolean
String.isDigits = (value: String): Boolean

Example

normalized = text
  |> String.trim
  |> String.lowercase

Comparison to JavaScript

Instead of instance methods like text.trim(), FScript uses imported helpers so the standard library stays explicit and uniform.
