<hr>
A <i>string constant</i> consists of a sequence of characters or
<a href=145.htm>escape sequences</a> enclosed in
double quotes, like
<pre>
"Hello world\n"
</pre>
The type of a string constant is
<tt><a href=158.htm>string</a></tt>.
<p>
String constants can be of any length (provided there is enough free memory
available).
<p>
String constants can be concatenated by simply writing them next to each other
to form larger strings:
<pre>
string s = "Hello" " world\n";
</pre>
It is also possible to extend a string constant over more than one line
by escaping the newline character with a backslash (<tt>\</tt>):
<pre>
string s = "Hello \
world\n";
</pre>
