 G-string - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Its earliest form was a strip of cloth between the legs secured by a string around the waist and called a "G-string," a name that was in use at least as far back as the late 1800s.
Some speculate that it may have been an analogy to the thickest string on a violin or a euphemistic abbreviation of girdle string or groin string.
They include the rio, tanga, thong, string thong, and micro bikini, among others.

 NOVA Elegant Universe Resonance in Strings PBS
With the strings in string theory, however, the vibrational pattern determines what kind of particle the string is. One resonant pattern makes it a photon, for example, while another makes it a heavy particle found within the nucleus of an atom.
Although the fundamental string shown above is depicted as a two-dimensional object, the strings in string theory are one-dimensional.
In string theory, this equivalence accounts for the different masses of different particles: a lower-energy string is lighter (less massive) than a higher-energy string.

 2.4.1 String literals
In a string literal, hexadecimal and octal escapes denote the byte with the given value; it is not necessary that the byte encodes a character in the source character set.
In triple-quoted strings, unescaped newlines and quotes are allowed (and are retained), except that three unescaped quotes in a row terminate the string.
Unlike Standard C, all unrecognized escape sequences are left in the string unchanged, i.e., the backslash is left in the string.

 String (Java 2 Platform SE v1.4.2)
If two strings are different, then either they have different characters at some index that is a valid index for both strings, or their lengths are different, or both.
Two strings are considered equal ignoring case if they are of the same length, and corresponding characters in the two strings are equal ignoring case.
Strings are constant; their values cannot be changed after they are created.

 NOVA The Elegant Universe A Theory of Everything? PBS
String theory proclaims, for instance, that the observed particle properties—that is, the different masses and other properties of both the fundamental particles and the force particles associated with the four forces of nature (the strong and weak nuclear forces, electromagnetism, and gravity)—are a reflection of the various ways in which a string can vibrate.
Just as the strings on a violin or on a piano have resonant frequencies at which they prefer to vibrate—patterns that our ears sense as various musical notes and their higher harmonics—the same holds true for the loops of string theory.
String theory adds the new microscopic layer of a vibrating loop to the previously known progression from atoms through protons, neutrons, electrons, and quarks.

A section of string passing on the palm side of the hand from one finger to another on the same hand is referred to as a palmar string.

 The String Coffee Table
In the case of the string Lie 2-algebra of Baez and Crans, this recovers the model of the string group introduced in math.QA/0504123.
Of course, when the string is quantized in the usual way, there is a natural and obvious choice of “center of mass mode” which does play the role that one would expect naively.
In any case, even if we agree that two free string fields commute precisely when their respective “centers-of-mass” are spacelike seperated, I don’t quite see why this is supposed to be problematic.

 XML Path Language (XPath)
Strings consist of a sequence of zero or more characters, where a character is defined as in the XML Recommendation [XML].
If one object to be compared is a node-set and the other is a string, then the comparison will be true if and only if there is a node in the node-set such that the result of performing the comparison on the string-value of the node and the other string is true.
An attribute whose normalized value is a zero-length string is not treated specially: it results in an attribute node whose string-value is a zero-length string.

 What is character string? - A Word Definition From the Webopedia Computer Dictionary
A character string is often specified by enclosing the characters in single or double quotes.
Some programs, however, mark the beginning or end of a character string with an invisible character, so the length might actually be one greater than the number of characters.
The length of a character string is usually the number of characters in it.

 CLHS: Function STRING=, STRING/=, STRING<...
A string a is equal to a string b if it contains the same number of characters, and the corresponding characters are the same under char= or char-equal, as appropriate.
string= is true if the supplied substrings are of the same length and contain the same characters in corresponding positions; otherwise it is false.
string-lessp and string-greaterp are exactly like string< and string>, respectively, except that distinctions between uppercase and lowercase letters are ignored.

 String
The lower strings will be at this tension, and the higher strings will use a higher tension.
Recommended starting point is a tension per meter of 4.42 for regular strings and 4.32 for octave strings, but you may prefer something lighter or heavier.
This calculator tries to calculate the correct dimensions for a complete set of lute strings, gradually increasing the tension in the upper strings, to give a good "feel." Note that only the lowest strings will have the tension that you input.

 String
This is a string library that is intended to be compatible with the class string library in the C++ standard.
It follows the standard class string as I understand it, except that a few functions that are relevant only to the template version are omitted, and all the functions involving iterators are omitted.
Moving the String data invalidates the const char* returned by.data() and.c_str() and any reference returned by the non-const versions of.at() or operator[] (and any iterators referring to the string).

Return true if all cased characters in the string are uppercase and there is at least one cased character, false otherwise.

 3. An Informal Introduction to Python
Strings, and the Unicode strings described in the next section, are examples of sequence types, and support the common operations supported by such types.
The interpreter prints the result of string operations in the same way as they are typed for input: inside quotes, and with quotes and other funny characters escaped by backslashes, to show the precise value.
Strings can be subscripted (indexed); like in C, the first character of a string has subscript (index) 0.

 K. Scott Allen : String Basics Part I
You’ll hear people saying strings “act like value types”, but this doesn’t mean the runtime makes a copy of the string during assignment operations, and it doesn’t make a copy of a string when passing the string as a parameter.
The value given to a string parameter in a method call is the reference, not a copy of the string’s value.
Because of these two behaviors we sometimes say strings have value type semantics (they feel like value types), but strings are reference types in the runtime.
