Creation

You can define strings in JavaScript by enclosing the text in single quotes or double quotes:

  1. // Single quotes can be used
  2. var str = 'Our lovely string';
  4. // Double quotes as well
  5. var otherStr = "Another nice string";

In Javascript, Strings can contain UTF-8 characters:

  1. "中文 español English हिन्दी العربية português বাংলা русский 日本語 ਪੰਜਾਬੀ 한국어";

Note: Strings can not be subtracted, multiplied or divided.
