Strings

fn main() {
    const name = "Asha"
    print("Hello, {name}!")
    print(name.len())
    print(name.upper())
}

Hello, Asha!4ASHA

Braces inside text put a value in: "Hello, {name}!". Methods do the rest: len() counts characters, upper() gives capitals.

Strings never change

name.upper() gives a new string and leaves name as it was. That is why the methods can be chained safely, one after another:

fn main() {
    const s = "  Namaste  "
    print(s.trim())
    print(s.trim().upper())
    print(s.trim().lower())
}
