rangeOfString:... and friends return the range in which the argument
string occurs in the receiver.
If the returned range has length 0, then the string does not occur in
the receiver.
Note that due to design of Unicode, it is possible that length of the
returned range is not equal to the length of the target string. If you
need to know where the target string occurs, always use the returned
range.
