Solution (By Examveda Team)
substring() method has two variants and returns a new string that is a substring of this string. The substring begins with the character at the specified index and extends to the end of this string or upto endIndex - 1 if second argument is given.
Syntax: Here is the syntax of this method:
public String substring(int beginIndex)
or
public String substring(int beginIndex, int endIndex)
Parameters: Here is the detail of parameters:
beginIndex -- the begin index, inclusive.
endIndex -- the end index, exclus

d is at the 3rd position but the end index cannot be included so it stops at c (i.e.,) (1, 3) means (1, 2) cause the 3rd position cannot be included.
Another (eg): if it is given as (2, 6) then it means (2,4,5) only.
If b is at position 1 so how c is at position 3.
