\title{Concatenate Strings}
\usage{
paste(\dots, sep = " ", collapse = NULL)
}
\alias{paste}
\description{
  \code{paste} converts its arguments to character strings, and
  concatenates them (separating them by the string given by \code{sep}).
  If a value is specified for \code{collapse}, the values in the result
  are then concatenated into a single string, with the elements being
  separated by the value of \code{collapse}.

  The concatenated value is returned as the value of \code{paste}.
