Java StringBuilder subSequence() Method
Example
Return the first 5 characters:
StringBuilder sb = new StringBuilder("Hello World");
System.out.println(sb.subSequence(0, 5));Definition and Usage
The subSequence() method returns the characters between two positions as a CharSequence.
It works like substring(), but returns a CharSequence instead of a String. In most cases, substring() is easier to use.
