## Upgrading to SparkR 2.3.1 and above

- In SparkR 2.3.0 and earlier, the `start` parameter of `substr` method was wrongly subtracted by one, previously. In other words, the index specified by `start` parameter was considered as 0-base. This can lead to inconsistent substring results and also does not match with the behaviour with `substr` in R. In version 2.3.1 and later, it has been fixed so the `start` parameter of `substr` method is now 1-base. As an example, `substr(lit('abcdef'), 2, 4))` would result to `abc` in SparkR 2.3.0, and the result would be `bcd` in SparkR 2.3.1.
