Kotlin Program to Print a String

In this article, we will understand how to print a string. String is a datatype that contains one or more characters and is enclosed in double quotes(“ ”).

Below is a demonstration of the same

Suppose our input is −

Hello my name is John!

The desired output would be

The string is: Hello my name is John!

Algorithm

• Step 1 − START

• Step 2 − Define a string variable

• Step 3 − Display the string on the console

• Step 4 − STOP

Example 1

In this example, we will print a string using the print() method in Kotlin. First, declare a string variable, which will be our input string −

val inputStr = "Hello my name is David!"

Now, print the above string using the print() method −

print("The string is defined as: " +inputStr)

Let us now see the complete example

fun main() {
   val inputStr = "Hello my name is David!"
   println("The string is defined as: " +inputStr)
}

Output

The string is defined as: Hello my name is David!

Example 2

Here, we have created a custom function and printed a string

fun printStr(inputStr : String){
   println("The string is defined as: " +inputStr)
}

fun main() {
   val inputStr = "Hello my name is John!"
   printStr(inputStr)
}

Output

The string is defined as: Hello my name is John!
