String Class

Does the STD library's version of the string class include something
similar to mystring.substr(startPos, length)?  Is there some other way
to do this?  I get the following error message when trying to compile
when using the substr function:

arithmetica.cc:126: no matching function for call to
`basic_string<char,string_char_traits<char>,__default_alloc_template<false,0>
>::substr (int, int,
map<basic_string<char,string_char_traits<char>,__default_alloc_template<false,0>
>,Expression,less<basic_string<char,string_char_traits<char>,__default_alloc_template<false,0>
> >,__default_alloc_template<false,0> > &)'
