Question

I’m adding a notepad feature to my application, and I want to read the first ten characters of a string and use that string as the title for a cell in my table view.

I think I could use substringFromIndex:.

Can someone elaborate on how I could go about doing this?

Answer 1

[@"1234567890" substringToIndex:6]

gives you
123456

• substringFromIndex – from a given index to the end (apple docs )
• substringToIndex – Returns a new string containing the characters of the receiver up to, but not including, the one at a given index (apple docs)
