string extract(string str, int from, int to)
Extract a substring from a string. Character 0 is first character. extract(str, n) will return a substring from characer number n to the end. ectract(str, i, j) will return a string from character i to character j.
This is obsolete, though it is still retained as a simul_efun. Use str[from..to] to get substrings of strings.
