Summary
In addition to the comparison operators, which can be used on string values, the concatenation operator (+
) concatenates two string values together, returning another string that is the union of the two operand strings. For example, "my " + "string"
returns the string "my string"
.
The shorthand assignment operator +=
can also be used to concatenate strings. For example, if the variable mystring
has the value "alpha
", then the expression mystring += "bet"
evaluates to "alphabet
" and assigns this value to mystring
.
