Abstract

This chapter will discuss the string data type in Microsoft .NET Framework using C# language. First I will show how the CLR manages to instantiate a string in .NET. I will then discuss string immutability through which CLR ensures that when a string is created, it can’t be changed, and examine its contents, chaining operations in string, and various concatenation techniques used in .NET Framework for the string.
