Fine
if the input is str_input = “India-2019”
then
for this

str_position1 = Str_input.Indexof(“-”).ToString

and for this

Str_output = Split(Str_input,“-”)(0).tostring

hope this would help you
Cheers @Sajin_91

Str_output = Split(Str_input,“-”)(0).tostring
Here the input str_input has value India-2019
And split method will split the string with - as delimiter and gives us the output in array format
—So after splitting we will be having two string values {“India”,”2019”}
So to get the first value we mention as (0) atlast
Thus we get “India”

Hope this would help you
