Stringing a string together!

Hi guys,

I am wondering how you can pull different datatypes into a string, for example im trying to do the following with a StringMorph;

StringMorph contents: 'Text Stuff Here: ' + SmallInteger asString

Hard to explain myself but in PHP it would be;

$finalvalue = "Player: " + $myint;

and in C would be

cout << "Player: " << myint << endl;

Thanks!
Andrew

You can't. You can, however, create a String representation:

StringMorph contents: 'Text Stuff here:' , aSmallInteger asString.

StringMorph contents: 'Welcome ', 2 asString, ' Squeak'

Note that since Squeak 4.1 String >> #, sends #asString to it's argument,
so this will return a string: 'The answer is ', 42, $!.
