I think you missed it:

In java.lang.String:

public String substring(int beginIndex)
public String substring(int beginIndex, int endIndex)
public int indexOf(String str)
public int indexOf(String str, int fromIndex)

For example:

String text = "Hello Kent Mestayer";
String justKent = text.substring(text.indexOf("K"), text.indexOf("M") -
2);
