Strings
Anything that is surrounded by quotation marks is called a string
. This is how a computer represents words or sentences. For example, “a”, “2”, “banana!", and “Hello World” are strings, but 2 and Hello World are not strings, because the quotation marks are missing. You can combine many strings together using the +
sign!
For example,
"Apple" + "Pineapple"
produces the string"ApplePineapple"
"Nuevo" + " " + "Foundation"
produces"Nuevo Foundation"
Challenge
What if you combine your first and last name? How would you do that?
