+ <h4 class="subsection">String Type</h4> <p>A <em>string</em> is an array of characters. Strings are used for many purposes in Emacs, as can be expected in a text editor; for example, as the names of Lisp symbols, as messages for the user, and to represent text extracted from buffers. Strings in Lisp are constants: evaluation of a string returns the same string. </p> <p>See <a href="strings-and-characters">Strings and Characters</a>, for functions that operate on strings. </p> <table class="menu" border="0" cellspacing="0"> <tr>
