The Template:Str_number/trim extracts a number at the start of parameter 1. It takes a string as parameter, and returns the string trimmed to the beginning number if non-numeric text does not appear before the first number.
In C, strings are normally represented as a character array rather than an actual string data type. The fact a string is really an array of characters means that referring to a string would mean referring to the first element in an array. Hence in C, the following is a legitimate example of brace notation:
Wikipedia does not have the "StringFunctions" series of parser functions (listed below), and is not going to get them (per phab:T8455). Instead, templates use Lua (via Module:String or otherwise), alongside existing parser functions. None of these functions will work, but they have alternatives: #len – use {{#invoke:string|len}}

The template takes a substring of ''text'' starting at ''start'' and containing ''length'' characters. Template parameters [Edit template data] Parameter Description Type Status Text 1 The substring to be trimmed. String required Numeric position 2 Numeric position of the starting character within the string Number required Count 3 Number of characters for the substring Number required See also
When the condition is matched or some result is successfully found, strings of at least one character are returned. char Creates a string from a list of character codes. 1 Space-separated list of character codes * Number of repetitions of the list in parameter 1; (Default 1). errors 0 – Silence errors concatParams
This happens for example with UTF-8, where single codes (UCS code points) can take anywhere from one to four bytes, and single characters can take an arbitrary number of codes. In these cases, the logical length of the string (number of characters) differs from the physical length of the array (number of bytes in use).
The template trims leading and trailing square brackets from a string. Template parameters [Edit template data] Parameter Description Type Status String 1 The string to be trimmed String required See also {{ delink }}, which does nearly the exact same thing, but also removes balanced pairs of square brackets that aren't leading and trailing and has additional options. {{ trim }} {{ Escape page ...
