These functions all manipulate strings in various ways. Some more
|
|
|
|
|
specialized sections can be found in the regular expression and

URL handling sections.

For information on how strings behave, especially with regard to
|
|
|
|
|
usage of single quotes, double quotes, and escape sequences, see
|
|
|
|
|
the <link linkend="language.types.string">Strings</link> entry in
|
|
|
|
|
the <link linkend="language.types">Types</link> section of the
|
|
|
|

manual.
