Further remarks

See the tests for further examples.

In general all methods have an optional startPos parameter in case searching should not start at 0 (beginning). Beware that for the SpanBeforeXXX methods this only influences the search position but not the outcome. Meaning the characters before startPos are included in a possible result.

Furthermore all methods have an optional stringComparison parameter to configure the culture & case sensitivity behaviour. The default value is Ordinal. Meaning compare strings using ordinal (binary) sort rules.
