Character expressions are limited to a single character constant character variable, or character attribute variable. Examples of these are:

 'abcdef'
 "ab   123"
 $answer
 %3.2            (if the attribute is character)

It is not possible to access part of a character string, concatenate two strings, or process a string.

Character strings are case sensitive. For example, 'abc' is not the same as 'ABC'.
