Strings

It is nearly impossible to write a C# program without creating strings. A string object holds a series of characters.

You declare a string variable using the string keyword much as you would create an instance of any type:

string myString;

You specify a string literal by enclosing it in double quotes:

"Hello World"

It is common to initialize a string variable that contains a string literal:

string myString = "Hello World";

Strings will be covered in much greater detail in Chapter 17.
