Oh how i miss pascal stings... the may be limited to a length of 256 characters, but boy are they easy to work with! Maybe i'll implement them in C++...

Java Strings or Haskell Strings are probably easier to work with.

Haskell strings, yes. Java strings, though... I'm not sure. C++ strings have the benefit of sticking to STL-style iteration schemes.

the java.text package has all that implemented.. But the recent Scanner class is a more powerful implementation... even more powerful than C++'s STL.

I'm not even necessarily talking about power, but consistency with other classes.
