Strings

Strings are text values.

String Literals

Use single or double quotes for strings:

const name: string = "John"
println(name)

Concatenation

Use + to concatenate strings:

const data = "Nubo"
println(data + "!")

Template Strings

Use backticks for template strings with ${...} interpolation:

struct User {
    name: string
}

impl User {
    fn sayHello(self: User) void {
        println(`Hi! I am ${self.name}!`)
    }
}

String Length

Strings support length():

type hasLen: iface {
    length() int
}

fn len(obj: hasLen) int {
    return obj.length()
}

const name: string = "John"
println(len(name))

Bytes

Use bytes() to work with the bytes of a string:

let x: int = 0

bytes("hello").map(int).each(fn(n: int) {
    x = x + n
})

println(x)
