Returns a new string with text extracted from another string.

If beginIndex is greater than or equal to the length of the string, an empty string is returned. If it is negative, it returns that many characters from the end of the string length.

If endIndex is omitted, slice() extracts to the end of the string. If it is a positive value, the string value is captured up to, but not including that character. If the value is negative, the capture extracts to that number of characters from the end.

This is similar to the JavaScript slice.
