{title:Description}

{p 4 4 2}
The above functions are for manipulating strings.  Strings in Mata are 
strings of ASCII characters, usually the printable characters, but Mata 
enforces no such restriction.  In particular, strings may contain 
binary 0.


{title:Remarks}

{p 4 4 2}
In addition to the above functions, two operators are especially useful 
for dealing with strings.

{p 4 4 2}
The first is {cmd:+}.  Addition is how you concatenate strings:

	: {cmd:"abc" + "def"}
	{res:abcdef}

	: {cmd:command = "list"}
	: {cmd:args = "mpg weight"}
	: {cmd:result = command + " " + args}
	: {cmd:result}
	{res:list mpg weight}

{p 4 4 2}
The second is {cmd:*}.  Multiplication is how you duplicate strings:

	: {cmd:5*"a"}
	{res:aaaaa}

	: {cmd:"b"*3}
	{res:bbb}

	: {cmd:indent = 20}
	: {cmd:title = indent*" " + "My Title"}
	: {cmd:title}
        {res:                    My Title}
