How the following command works substr($str , 4, -4)  on the string ?
What should be the output?

Confusion is the first step of understanding.

Programming is as much about organization and communication
as it is about coding.

The secret to great software:  Fail early & often.

Eliminate software piracy:  use only FLOSS.
