Strings are sequences of characters. The literal representation of a string is surrounded by double quotes. For example:
"MEL is fun!" "abcdef012345" ":<>()&^%ABC"
Within strings you can use codes to include some special characters:
In MEL scripts, do not split strings across lines without using a line continuation character ‘\’.
You can stick strings together (concatenate them, in programmer parlance) using the + operator:
"MEL" + " is fun!" // This is the same as "MEL is fun!"
