insertAt() - The insertAt Function

Usage:

insertAt(string, element, index, separator)

Description: Returns a new string with the element and the corresponding separator (if existing) inserted at the specified index of the original string. If the index is less than 0 then 0 is used as the index. If the index is larger than the number of elements then the element is appended at the end of the string. If the string is empty, the function returns a new empty string with the given element.

If the index is of type floating-poing, Float.int() is first used to calculate the actual index value.

Example:

var a = "B C; E";
var s = " ";
var b = String.insertAt(a, "A", 0, s);     // b = "A B C; E"
var c = String.insertAt(a, "X", 3, s);     // c = "B C; E X"
var d = String.insertAt(a, "D", 1, ";");   // d = "B C;D; E"
var e = String.insertAt(a, "F", 5, ";");   // e = "B C; E;F"
