Merkkijonoarvot, often translated as string values, are a fundamental data type in computer programming used to represent text. A string value is a sequence of characters, which can include letters, numbers, symbols, and whitespace. These characters are typically enclosed within quotation marks, either single or double, to distinguish them from other data types like numbers or booleans. For example, "Hello, World!" and 'This is a string' are both valid string values.

The length of a string value is determined by the number of characters it contains. Operations that can be performed on string values include concatenation, which is joining two or more strings together, and indexing, which allows access to individual characters within the string based on their position. String manipulation is a common task in programming, used for tasks such as displaying messages, processing user input, and working with text files. Many programming languages provide built-in functions and methods for efficient string handling. The interpretation and processing of string values are crucial for a wide range of applications.
