Delete characters from the string given position and count

}Insert character to the end of a string
#include <string>

}Locating all instances of a character
#include <string>

}String array

}Use push_back() to add characters to a string
#include <iostream>
#include <string>
using namespace std;
int main()

string str2("B");
string str3("G");
string str4;
