The Substring function  is a nice Programming puzzle.

            Why did I have to write it myself?

                      Does it come standard in some library (package)
                        in Python or (Gauche)Scheme?

________________

A few weeks ago,  i was curious to see What English words contained  (
abcd...  )  consecutive letters of the alphabet.

         defrag          defg
         defang          defg
         defog           defg

         hijack          hijk

________________________________(Is there such a word containing 5
letters? )



             Am i  too Abced-minded ????
