String literal

A string literal or anonymous string is a literal for a string value in source code. Commonly, a programming language includes a string literal code construct that is a series of characters enclosed in bracket delimiters – usually quote marks. In many languages, the text "foo" is a string literal that encodes the text foo but there are many other variations.
