Method: String#splice

Defined in:
lib/core/facets/string/splice.rb

#splice(idx, sub = nil) ⇒ Object

String#slice is essentially the same as #store.

a = "HELLO"
a.splice(1, "X")
a                #=> "HXLLO"

But it acts like #slice! when given a single argument.

a = "HELLO"
a.splice(1)    #=> "E"
a              #=> "HLLO"
