declare
Digit0 = &0 %% the character '0'
NewLine = &\n %% a character with special representation
NewLine = &\012 %% characters can also be specified with octals
%% Strings are lists of characters, but can also be written in double quotes:
[&H &e &l &l &o] = "Hello"
AnAtom = 'Hello' %% single quotes are used for atoms
Atom2 = hello = 'hello' %% for atoms starting with a lower case letter, they are optional
%% To build strings out of other values, so-called virtual strings are used:
MyName = "Peter"
MyAge = 8
{System.showInfo MyName # " is " # MyAge # " years old."}
