concat(A::string() | binary(), B::string() | binary()) -> string() | binary()
Concatenate two strings (list or binary). Return type matching the first part.

Return true if What is found in the string
ends_with(End::iodata(), B::iodata()) -> boolean()
Return true if Word ends with End
escape_ical(L) -> any()
Escape special characters for ical RFC2445 elements
first_char(X1::binary() | list()) -> non_neg_integer()
Return the first character of a string.
is_string(Rest::iodata()) -> boolean()
Check if the variable is a one dimensional list of bytes, or a valid utf-8 binary.
