	    p("Contains:  ", s.Contains("test", "es"))
// check for the keyword contains in the text.

    p("Count:     ", s.Count("test", "t"))
// count of the occurrence of character or string in the text.

    p("HasPrefix: ", s.HasPrefix("test", "te"))
// check for the prefix text in the given text

    p("HasSuffix: ", s.HasSuffix("test", "st"))
//check for the suffix text in the given text.

    p("Index:     ", s.Index("test", "e"))
//check for the index of the character in the given text

    p("Join:      ", s.Join([]string{"a", "b"}, "-"))
//Join the strings

    p("Repeat:    ", s.Repeat("a", 5))
// duplicate the string for 5 number of times.

    p("Replace:   ", s.Replace("foo", "o", "0", -1))
// replace the character in a string. -1 indicates replace every where

    p("Replace:   ", s.Replace("foo", "o", "0", 1))
// replace the character in a string. 1 indicates replace at position 1

    p("Split:     ", s.Split("a-b-c-d-e", "-"))
//split the string with the character “-“

    p("ToLower:   ", s.ToLower("TEST"))
// convert the string to lower

    p("ToUpper:   ", s.ToUpper("test"))
// conver the string to upper

// Not part of strings, but worth mentioning here, are the mechanisms for getting the length of a string in bytes and getting a byte by index.
	    p("Len: ", len("hello"))
    p("Char:", "hello"[1])
