I still disagree. Discussing them together enables the author(s) to relate them in the text. For example, in the Hacker's Guide vfp7:

"These functions let you pull apart character strings. LEFT() grabs a specified number of characters from the beginning; RIGHT() takes the specified number from the end. SUBSTR() is the most general, but also the most difficult to use; it lets you extract a consecutive string of characters from anywhere in the original string." Copyright © 2002 by Tamar E.
