We have a string builder class which is mutable in C#. Why do we need immutable string classes?
The string class in C# should be used when you need to work with text data in your program. It provides a wide range of methods and properties that make it easier to manipulate and format strings.
The string class is a reference type, which means it is stored in the computer's memory and its value can be changed. Other data types, such as int and double, are value types, which means they are stored directly in a variable's memory location.
Yes, you can use string classes to store numbers by converting them to strings using methods like ToString()
. However, it is not recommended to use string classes for numerical calculations as it can impact performance.
One limitation of using string classes in C# is that they are immutable, meaning their value cannot be changed once they are created. This can be a problem if you need to constantly modify a string in your program. In such cases, using a StringBuilder class may be a better option.
Yes, string interpolation can be used with string classes in C#. It allows you to embed expressions or variables within a string, making it easier to format and manipulate strings.
