\title{Concatenate Two Character Vectors}
\usage{
e1 \%s+\% e2

e1 \%stri+\% e2
}
\arguments{
\item{e1}{a character vector or an object coercible to a character vector}

\item{e2}{a character vector or an object coercible to a character vector}
}
\value{
Returns a character vector.
}
\description{
Binary operators for joining (concatenating) two character vectors,
with a typical R look-and-feel.
}
\details{
Vectorized over \code{e1} and \code{e2}.

These operators act like a call to \code{\link{stri_join}(e1, e2, sep='')}.
However, note that joining 3 vectors, e.g., \code{e1 \%s+\% e2 \%s+\% e3}
is slower than \code{\link{stri_join}(e1, e2, e3, sep='')},
because it creates a new (temporary) result vector each time
the operator is applied.
}
\examples{
c('abc', '123', 'xy') \%s+\% letters[1:6]
'ID_' \%s+\% 1:5
