Text is everywhere: user names, messages, file paths. You need a way to store and manipulate character sequences. C++ gives you strings for this, and this part shows you how to use them.
I'll cover declaring strings, accessing characters, combining strings, comparing them, reading input, and extracting parts. These operations form the foundation of text processing. By the end, you'll handle text confidently.
You'll know C-style vs C++ strings, when to use each, and how to avoid common mistakes that trip up beginners working with text.
