string()
Core Math
string() is a MATLAB®-compatible core math function for construct a simlabstring (matlab r2016b+ string class). wraps a js string, char, or number. idempotent on existing simlabstrings. double-quoted literals "abc" auto-construct as simlabstring; single-quoted 'abc' stay as legacy char. Run it online in your browser with SimLab — free, no install, no license required.

What does string() do?
Construct a SimLabString (MATLAB R2016b+ string class). Wraps a JS string, char, or number. Idempotent on existing SimLabStrings. Double-quoted literals "abc" auto-construct as SimLabString; single-quoted 'abc' stay as legacy char. It is a MATLAB®-compatible core math function available in SimLab with the same calling syntax as MATLAB® — typically: s = string("hello").
Can I run string() in my browser?
Yes. Open SimLab at simulations4all.com/simlab, write or paste code that calls string(), and run it. Execution happens locally in your browser — no data leaves your machine.
