Example

Case sensitive

// Find characters

// Find from a string
println(   LastIndexOfAny("The quick brown FoX", array("FoX"))   );
// Find from an array of strings
println(   LastIndexOfAny("The quick brown catFoX", array("Fox", "cat"))   );

Case insensitive

// Find characters
println(   IndexNotOfAny("The quick brown FoX", "eht", 0, true)   );
// Find from a string
my $str = "The quick brown FoX";
println(   LastIndexOfAny($str, array("foX"), strlen($str) - 1, true)   );

my $str = "The quick brown catFoX";
println(   LastIndexOfAny("The quick brown catFoX", array("Fox", "cat"), strlen($str) -1, true)   );
