[edit] Parameters

index - first character to remove
count - number of characters to remove
position - iterator to the character to remove
first, last - range of the characters to remove

[edit] Return value

1) *this

2-3) iterator following the last removed character.

[edit] Complexity

1) linear in count.

2) Constant.

3) linear in distance between first and last.
