[sv-ec] from [sv-bc] question on str.putc()]

This was sent to the svbc but has to do with the string data type that
was added by the svec.

I apologize if this was already brought up.

3.7.2 putc() says that

str.putc(i,s) replaces the i'th character in str with the first character in s.

Then it says,

Note: str.putc(j,x) is semantically equivalent to str[j] = x.

My question, I would think that str[j] = x takes the LAST, not FIRST,
character if x is a string, as in the example

bit[1:4][7:0] h = "hello"; //assigns to h "ello"

Thanks,
Shalom
