@fedochet Oh ! base on your explaining, it is ok. But the param `startPos ` 
means `start`, I’m totally confused, I think it should be renamed as 
`endPos`, aHa ?.

@printfcoder according to 
[docs](https://commons.apache.org/proper/commons-lang/apidocs/org/apache/commons/lang3/StringUtils.html),
 
```
(lastIndexOf) Returns the index within seq of the last occurrence 
of the specified character, searching backward starting 
at the specified index. 
```
So `b` will be searched in range of positions `[0, 1]`, and there's no `b`s 
in there

 `StringUtils.lastIndexOf("aabaabaa", "b", 1)  = -1`

Could you please explain why the result is `1`,please? I see it shoud be 2, 
because that `to search starts at 1 position and b is at 2 idx`.
