Are strings var?

Question

I’m confused about strings. I’ve read what the strings are, but I’m still wondering what they are exactly and what they are for. Can someone explain it to me in a simpler way? I do have a hard time learning and comprehension as I have dyslexia and dysnomia. (I can’t spell well)

Answer 1

computers can just store one byte at a time ..so in one byte just a single character can be stored ..(like 'a', 'd','z','&' etc...)

but thats of no use if we want to display user a message ..there comes strings ..
string is nothing but a contiguously stores characters in memory ..

so exaplmple of string is "nobita", "doraemon" etc...

Answer 3

In which language? In C, strings are mere char arrays while in Python, strings are objects.

Answer 4

Leah Dykema In Swift, strings are objects which contain information such as string length, the string contents (character array), etc. Basically, a group of consecutive characters as an array represents the whole string.
