Strings

// How to set strings

// Strings are text basically

// For example:

string text = "lalalala";   // you can put anything in the ""

// Here you have a string that is called text, and is defined as "lalalala". A string can be anything that has characters

// You can change a string by just setting it to another string  (a set of letters)

text = "hehehehe";                     // text is now heheheh
text = "lolcoinageistooawesomeforme";   // text is lolcoinageistooawesomeforme
text = "anything";                      // text is anything

// You can do a lot more stuff with strings, such as making the string upper case, or lower case

string lower = text.ToLower();    // ToLower is a function that turns all the characters in text to lower case (A turns into a)
string upper = text.ToUpper();    // ToUpper is a function that turns all the characters in text to upper case (a turns into A)

// A string cannot be a number, that's what ints are for. You can check what a string is with a variety of functions

// Here are some if statements as examples: An if statement runs the code in the (),
// and does the code in the {} if the code in () is true.
text = "hellocoinage";          // text is set to "hellocoinage"
if (text.StartsWith("hello"))   // If statement checks if text starts with "hello"
       {
          string welcome = text.ToUpper();   // If the if statement is true, then a new string is set, which is called welcome, and
                                             // it is equal to text completely capitalized
       }

text = "hmm";   // text is set to "hmm"
if (text.Contains("coinage")) // If statement checks if text contains the string "coinage"
      {
           text = "wizard2002";     // if the if statement was true, text will be "wizard2002"
      }
else                                // else is used when you want the code to do something else if the if statement isn't true
             {
                text = "italkalot";  // if the if statement is false, then it will set text to "italkalot"
             }

// Strings are very important in coding, and are the building blocks of code, just like ints. You can do so much
// with strings, such as set arrays, get characters from a string, and much more..
