characters that supports amortized constant-time insertion and removal of elements at both ends,
and linear-time insertion and removal of elements in the middle. The parameters to < tt class = "literal" > < span class = "pre" > < a href = "./string.html" class = "identifier" > string< / a > < / span > < / tt >
are multi-character literals, giving a somewhat readable syntax for compile-time strings.
< tt class = "literal" > < span class = "pre" > < a href = "./string.html" class = "identifier" > string< / a > < / span > < / tt > can also be an argument to the < tt class = "literal" > < span class = "pre" > < a href = "./c-str.html" class = "identifier" > c_str< / a > < / span > < / tt > metafunction, which generates a
null-terminated character array that facilitates interoperability with runtime string
processing routines.< / p >
