A string 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.
