Question on stringI have a string of around 150 characters. string test = "asjhdkashdkjahsdjkhaskjdhaskjdhasjdhasd........."; //(upto 150 characters) I want to split the above string into multiple lines in IDE while declaring it so that it is more readable. How can I do that? I do not want to concatenate using "+" nor do I want to use stringbuilder object. I tried using @. If I use @ followed by the string, compiler is inserting special characters like \t,\n. I think that I can StringBuilder object but are there any other alternatives? My goal is to be able to declare string like this without using "+" or stringbuilder spread accross in multiple lines in IDE. string test = "asjhdajkshdjkashdajksdhajskdhasd sdfsjkdhfkjsdhfsjkdhfskjdfhskdjfhsd sdfhsdjkfhsjdkfhsdjkfhsdjkfhsdkjfhs"; I hope I made sense as to what I want to achieve.... Thank you. Diffident,

Bruce,
Can you please explain me how compiler would be able to optimize "+". Why I did not want to use string concatenation was that I wanted it to be a single string object and hence less memory would be used. But if I use "+" does not that consume more memory due to string's inherent property of immutability and hence heavy cost of concatenations? Please correct me if I am wrong...
