6.10 Strings

Builtin Class: <string>

A string class. In Gauche, a string can be viewed in two ways: a sequence of characters, or a sequence of bytes.

R5RS string operations are very minimal. Gauche supports some extra built-in operations, and also a rich string library defined in SRFI-13. See section 10.7 srfi-13 - String library, for details about SRFI-13.
