Examples

Basic Examples  (1)

An error occurs because a string containing a single character is not a valid value for the MetaCharacters option:

Wolfram Language code: StringPosition["1234568", "3xx", MetaCharacters -> "x"]

This shows a valid value for the MetaCharacters option:

Wolfram Language code: StringPosition["1234568", "3xx", MetaCharacters -> {"\\", "x", "*"}]
