# sliceCodePoints
> Slice a string based on Unicode code point indices.
## Usage
```javascript
var sliceCodePoints = require( '@stdlib/string/base/slice-code-points' );
```
#### sliceCodePoints( str, start, end )
Slices a string based on Unicode code point indices.
```javascript
var out = sliceCodePoints( 'Hello π World', 0, 7 );
// returns 'Hello π'
out = sliceCodePoints( 'πππ', 1, 2 );
// returns 'π'
```
The function accepts the following arguments:
- **str**: input string.
- **start**: the `ith` Unicode code point to start a slice (inclusive).
- **end**: the `jth` Unicode code point to end a slice (exclusive).
## Examples
```javascript
var sliceCodePoints = require( '@stdlib/string/base/slice-code-points' );
console.log( sliceCodePoints( 'Hello π World', 0, 7 ) );
// => 'Hello π'
console.log( sliceCodePoints( 'last man standing', 1, 17 ) );
// => 'ast man standing'
console.log( sliceCodePoints( 'ε
δΉ¦/ε
ζΈ', 1, 14 ) );
// => 'δΉ¦/ε
ζΈ'
