I am working on a Xcode program and need to cut the last 5 characters from a string.

Does anybody know how to cut the last 5 characters from a NSString?

Answer

just looked for it my self few minutes ago

NSString *str = @"1234567890";
NSString *newStr;

newStr = [str substringToIndex:[str length]-5];

NSLog(@"%@", newStr);
