set cursor 0,0 `Set our cursor

`Before we use the mid$ string, we'll want to find out how long our string is.

`We do this by using the 'len' command, and then inputting our string.

print "There are ";len(string$); " characters in this string."

`We now will use the 'mid$' command. This command can be very useful for us.

`In this tutorial, you'll see how the characters are picked up.

`Basically, you input the string you'd like to test for and you put in the character

`you'd like to find. This can be very helpful for picking out test.

print "first character ";mid$(string$,1)

print "second ";mid$(string$,2)

print "third ";mid$(string$,3)

print "fourth ";mid$(string$,4)

print "fifth ";mid$(string$,5)

`Now we just print our string so you can see how it all fits into place.

print "This is our full string ";string$
