Strings

All strings in QangLang are represented by UTF-8. All strings are interned, making them immutable and immortal for the life of the program.

Caution

Because of how QangLang handles strings, strings should not be used for sensative information such as passwords.

Converting a Value to a String

There is no implicit conversion of strings in QangLang. When using the + operator to concatenate, ensure both values are strings by using the to_string function.

var hello = "Hello";
var space = " ";
var world = "World!";
println(hello + space + world); // "Hello World!"

var name = "Jane Doe";
var age = 25;
println("Name: " + name + ", Age: " + to_string(age)); // "Name: Jane Doe, Age: 25"
