Function Explanation

The Find instruction takes the characters in In2 as key characters and searches for the position of
key characters in the string In1 . For example, as In1 is ABCDEFGH and In2 is DE, the value of Out
is 4.

The search starts from the first character in the string In1.

If multiple In2 strings exist in In1 , the value of Out is the position of the first In2 from the beginning
of In1 .
