What is std::string?

The std::string is a class in C++ since C++98. This class is the standard representation for a text string. It includes some typical string operations like find, replace, concatenate, compare etc. It is present in header file....

Commonly Used String Functions in C++

The std::string class contains functions to provide some common string operations. The below table contains some of the most commonly used functions in C++:...

1. String Length – length() or size()

We can find the length of the string (number of characters) using either length() or size() function of the std::string class....

2. Accessing Characters – at()

Generally, we can access the character of a string using the [] array subscript operator and indexing. But std::string also has a function named at() which can be used to access the characters of the string....
