@ -368,8 +368,9 @@ A string behaves like an array of bytes, with the following properties:
- Known length: the length of a string s1 can be obtained by the function/
operator len(s1). The length of a string is the number of bytes within.
Unlike in C, there is no terminal NUL byte.
- Creation 1: a string can be created from an integer value by a conversion
string('x') yields "x"
- Creation 1: a string can be created from an integer value by a conversion;
the result is a string containing the UTF-8 encoding of that code point.
string('x') yields "x"; string(0x1234) yields the equivalent of "\u1234"
- Creation 2: a string can by created from an array of integer values (maybe
just array of bytes) by a conversion
a [3]byte; a[0] = 'a'; a[1] = 'b'; a[2] = 'c'; string(a) == "abc";
