Lesson 4.2 - String Concatenation

Key Points

• A variable is a container for storing data values. E.g., let variable;
• Variables can store different data types including numbers and strings.
• A string is a series of characters or text. E.g., let name = "Mario";
• Strings are data types and are always enclosed in quotation marks ("" or '').
• Strings and numbers are written differently. E.g., "seven" vs 7.
• Only the + operator can be used to concatenate strings.

Examples of String Concatenation

1. Basic Concatenation:

   let first = "Maria";
   let space = " ";
   let last = "Singh";
   console.log(first + space + last); // "Maria Singh"

2. Concatenation with Variables:

   let food = "pizza";
   let sentence = "My favorite food is " + food;
