Builtins.createString(3kaya)
NAME
Builtins::createString - Creates a string with particular memory allocation
SYNOPSIS
String createString( Int len )
ARGUMENTS
len The number of characters to allocate space for
DESCRIPTION
Create an empty string, with initial space for len characters. Use
this to avoid unnecessary reallocation if you know or can compute the
length of a string in advance.
Using this function can save time and memory in Kaya programs, but generally the default memory allocation will be adequate - save this for
the optimisation stage.
