Exceptionless counterparts for error-raising operations

    val to_int : string -> int option

Returns the integer represented by the given string or `None` if the string does not represent an integer.

    val to_float : string -> float option

Returns the float represented by the given string or `None` if the string does not represent a float.

    val index : string -> char -> int option

`index s c` returns `Some p`, the position of the leftmost occurrence of character `c` in string `s` or `None` if `c` does not occur in `s`.

    val rindex : string -> char -> int option

`rindex s c` returns `Some p`, the position of the rightmost occurrence of character `c` in string `s` or `None` if `c` does not occur in `s`.

    val index_from : string -> int -> char -> int option

Same as `String.Exceptionless.index`, but start searching at the character position given as second argument. `index s c` is equivalent to `index_from s 0 c`.

    val rindex_from : string -> int -> char -> int option

Same as `String.Exceptionless.rindex`, but start searching at the character position given as second argument. `rindex s c` is equivalent to `rindex_from s (String.length s - 1) c`.

    val find : string -> string -> int option

`find s x` returns `Some i`, the starting index of the first occurrence of string `x` within string `s`, or `None` if `x` is not a substring of `s`.

Note This implementation is optimized for short strings.

    val find_from : string -> int -> string -> int option

`find_from s ofs x` behaves as `find s x` but starts searching at offset `ofs`. `find s x` is equivalent to `find_from s 0 x`.

    val rfind : string -> string -> int option

`rfind s x` returns `Some i`, the starting index of the last occurrence of string `x` within string `s`, or `None` if `x` is not a substring of `s`.

Note This implementation is optimized for short strings.

    val rfind_from : string -> int -> string -> int option

`rfind_from s ofs x` behaves as `rfind s x` but starts searching at offset `ofs`. `rfind s x` is equivalent to `rfind_from s (String.length s - 1) x`.

    val split : string -> by:string -> (string * string) option

`split s sep` splits the string `s` between the first occurrence of `sep`, or returns `None` if the separator is not found.

    val rsplit : string -> by:string -> (string * string) option

`rsplit s sep` splits the string `s` between the last occurrence of `sep`, or returns `None` if the separator is not found.
