substring in velocity?

Does anyone know if substring, or an equivalent, work when using java
velocity? I just need to be able to take the first two letters of this one
variable, and use that for a #set statement.

all java methods work in Velocity.   So:

#set($ref  = "abcdefghi".substring(0,3))

should work just fine.
