• A string is a sequence of characters used to represent text.
• Strings can contain letters, numbers, symbols, spaces, and emojis.
• Strings are enclosed in single quotes ('), double quotes ("), or triple quotes (''' or """).
• Strings are one of the most commonly used data types in Python.
• Each character in a string has an index position starting from 0.
• Strings are immutable, meaning their contents cannot be changed after creation.
• Python supports Unicode strings, allowing text from different languages and symbols.
• Strings can be combined using the + operator (concatenation).
• Strings can be repeated using the * operator.
• Many built-in methods are available for string manipulation, such as upper(), lower(), and replace().
