Strings
A string (
<string>
) is a series of characters enclosed by either single or double quotes. If
a string needs to include the same quote that encloses it, it must be escaped. For example,
'That\'s amazing!'
or
"Deploy the \"scare quotes\" at once!"
. If a newline is
needed within a string, it is represented as
\A
, which is the Unicode codepoint for the line feed
character. Any Unicode character can be represented using an escaped codepoint reference;
thus, a left curly double quotation mark is represented
\201C
. If a string does contain a line-
feed for legibility reasons, it must be escaped and will be removed when processing the string.
