string variables? string constants?

[andrew22289]

how do I declare a string as for example, ABC=abcdefgh... would I put const ABC=blahblah? Help me please!!!

Well i'm not certain that this is what you want so I'll cover all the bases.

#include <string>
using std::string

const string ABC="blahblahblah";
string EFG="abcdefghijk...";

ABC is constant is not supposed to be changed (type casting can take away the string's constant status) and EFG can be freely altered.
