%STRINGS Character strings in MATLAB.
%   S = 'Any Characters' is a vector whose components are the numeric
%   codes for the characters (the first 127 codes are ASCII). The
%   actual characters displayed depends on the character set
%   encoding for a given font.  The length of S is the number of
%   characters. A quote within the string is indicated by two
%   quotes.
%   
%   S = CHAR(X) can be used to convert an array that contains
%   positive integers representing character codes into a MATLAB
%   character array. 
%
%   X = DOUBLE(S) converts the string to its equivalent double precision
%   numeric codes.
%
%   A collection of strings can be created in two ways: 1) as the rows of a
%   character array via STRVCAT or 2) as a cell array of strings via the
%   curly braces.  The two are different but can be converted back and
%   forth with CHAR and CELLSTR.  Most string functions support both
%   types.
%
%   ISCHAR(S) tells if S is a character array (string) and ISCELLSTR(S)
%   tells if S is a cell array of strings.
%
%   Examples
%       msg = 'You''re right!'
%       C = strvcat('Hello','Yes','No','Goodbye')
%       S = {'Hello' 'Yes' 'No' 'Goodbye'}

%            STRFUN, SPRINTF, SSCANF, INPUT.
