MySQL SUBSTRING: Extract Text After String

In MySQL, you can use the SUBSTRING function to extract characters after a specified string. The syntax of this function is as follows:

SUBSTRING(str, start, length)

In this case, “str” is the string to be trimmed, “start” is the position where trimming begins (counting from 1), and “length” is the number of characters to be trimmed.

For example, assuming there is a string ‘Hello World’ and you want to extract characters after a specific substring, you can use the following statement:

SELECT SUBSTRING('Hello World', 6) AS result;

The output result is ‘World’, meaning the characters starting from the 6th position are extracted.

To extract a specified length of characters, you can specify the length parameter in the SUBSTRING function. For example, to extract characters after the first 5 characters of a string, you can use the following statement:

SELECT SUBSTRING('Hello World', 6, 5) AS result;

The output is ‘Worl’, which is the result of taking 5 characters starting from the 6th character.
