= INVESTIGATION 2: STRINGS =
:Strings are basically a list of characters (bits of text). Strings store text so that they can be later used for manipulation (by a wide range of functions). This section will investigate strings in more detail such as cutting strings into sub-strings, joining strings together, formatting strings, searching through strings, and matching strings against patterns. Strings are '''immutable''' data objects - this means that once a string is created, it <u>cannot</u> be modified. In order to make a change inside a string, you would first make a copy of the parts(sub-strings), and then manipulate this string for a particular purpose.
