C++ Strings


C++ Strings

Strings are used for storing text/characters.

For example, "Hello World" is a string.

A string variable contains a collection of characters surrounded by double quotes (""):

Example

string greeting = "Hello";

To use strings, you must include an additional header file in the source code, the <string> library:

Example

  // Include the string library
#include <string>

// Create a string variable
string greeting = "Hello";

// Print the string
cout << greeting;

Note: Strings can contain multiple words, spaces, and punctuation:

Example

string greeting = "Hello and welcome!";
cout << greeting;
