ABAP tricks #24/100: 😀 STRING expressions

•  String expressions can help make your ABAP code more concise and straightforward. 

Concatenation operator && :

•  The concatenation operator &&, you can use to replace the CONCATENATE statement.

•  While the keyword CONCATENATE only accepts operands with a character-like type (C, N, D, T, STRING), the concatenation operator && allows you to use any data type. 

•  You may still prefer to use CONCATENATE in cases where you require the SEPARATED BY addition, as the concatenation operator does not provide this.

String templates :

•  String templates allow you to construct a string using literals, variables, and embedded functions. 

•  String templates are enclosed in vertical pipes ( | ). Expressions must be enclosed in curly braces with at least one space at the beginning and end.
