k Strings
A string is a series of characters inside of quotation marks. In a program, strings are used to
specify display text.
A string made up of numbers (like “123”) or an expression (like “x–1”) cannot be processed
as a calculation.
To include quotation marks (") or a backslash (\) in a string, put a backslash (\) in front of the
quotation marks (") or backslash (\).
Example 1: To include Japan: “Tokyo” in a string
Print 䡺"Japan:\"Tokyo\""
Example 2: To include main\abc in a string
Print 䡺"main\\abc"
