As I have been coding for some time now, I have come to realize that everything in software is a string.
Code is a string, an ascii file is a string, input is a string, output is a string, ide is a string, compiler is a string.
It's string which takes other string, processes it and produces some string in return.
The input string might itself work on another string .... and it goes on recursively.
It helps me if I think about it this way.

shabdo ke saath to nahin khel rahe ho na? I am not sure if the 'string' in string theory has similar connotation as 'string' in computer codes i.e. an array of characters.
bp: if u think carefully, string denotes a certain length of substance. I am sure that the string in computer languages got it's name from the string we know in common life.
