### STRING

coerce to a string

    Major Section:  ACL2-BUILT-INS

`(String x)` coerces `x` to a string. If `x` is already a string, then it is returned unchanged; if `x` is a symbol, then its `symbol-name` is returned; and if `x` is a character, the corresponding one-character string is returned.

The guard for `string` requires its argument to be a string, a symbol, or a character.

`String` is a Common Lisp function. See any Common Lisp documentation for more information.
