Concatenative¶
A concatenative structure is a structure that is valid after placing values one after the other.
For example, strings are concatenative, using the . dot operator. On the other hand, JSON is not concatenative, as two JSON strings placed one after the other does not create a valid JSON.
There are concatenative programming languages, and natural languages.
<?php
$fullName = 'John' . ' ' . 'Doe';
?>
