> Octave but with nice string concatenation

As a heavy octave user, I never felt a need to concatenate strings in any way. But I'd be happy if julia was an Octave but with fast loops, which it sort of is; but still not really there.

When you use Matlab/Simulink for c-code generation and use it for a lot of purposes Matlab was not really made for you might run into processing strings.

But ye for normal use it is not really a problem.
