[SOLVED] String "ends with" or "starts with"

In rules, how do I check if a given variable (string) “ends with” or “starts with” a specified value? (I know about “contains”, but that does not completely solve it)

var String someVariable = "Somebody once told me"

if (someVariable.startsWith("Somebody")) {
   // do something
}

if (someVariable.endsWith("me")) {
   // do something else
}

Cheers
