[b]Note:[/b] The replacement of placeholders is not done all at once, instead each placeholder is replaced in the order they are passed, this means that if one of the replacement strings contains a key it will also be replaced. This can be very powerful, but can also cause unexpected results if you are not careful. If you do not need to perform replacement in the replacement strings, make sure your replacements do not contain placeholders to ensure reliable results.

<description>
Splits the string using a [param delimiter] and returns the substring at index [param slice]. Returns an empty string if the [param slice] does not exist.
Splits the string using a [param delimiter] and returns the substring at index [param slice]. Returns the original string if [param delimiter] does not occur in the string. Returns an empty string if the [param slice] does not exist.
This is faster than [method split], if you only need one substring.
