How we can declare mutable and immutable string in Kotlin?

 

In Kotlin whatever value you define here that determines the data types of the variable. Suppose (var myNumber =10),that automatically becomes integer value. Similarly, you can write the datatypes of the variable (var myString: String). In case of the mutable string, you can modify string at any point of time. Example of mutable & immutable string-

fun main(args: Array<String>) {

var myString: String               // Mutable String
myString = “Hello World”
myString = “Another World”

val myAnotherString = “My Constant String”            //  Immutable String

myAnotherString = “Arin”           ……Error will be given in this line because Immutable String cannot be modified

}

 

String Interpolation :-

In Kotlin String interpolation process is little bit different from any other languages.Example-

fun main(arg: Array<String>) {

var rect = Rectangle()           //  creating object of Rectangle class named rect
rect:length = 5
rect:breadth = 3

print(” length = ${rect.length} and breadth = ${rect.breadth}. Area is ${rect.length * rect.breadth}”)

}

class Rectangle {

var length: Int = 0
var breadth: Int = 0

}

Output :

length = 5 and breadth = 3. Area is 15
