Name

str()

Examples
boolean b = false;
byte y = -28;
char c = 'R';
float f = -32.6;
int i = 1024;

String sb = str(b);
String sy = str(y); 
String sc = str(c);
String sf = str(f);
String si = str(i);

sb = sb + sy + sc + sf + si;

println(sb);  // Prints 'false-28R-32.61024'
Description Converts any value of a primitive data type (boolean, byte, char, color, double, float, int, or long) to its String representation. For example, converting an integer with str(3) will return the String value of "3", converting a float with str(-12.6) will return "-12.6", and converting a boolean with str(true) will return "true".

When an array of values is passed in, then a String array of the same length is returned.
