diff betwn "&" and "+" for cancatenation

[learner1]

do these both character ("&" and "+" ) serve the same pupose of concatenation

i tried concatenation of 2 strings using both above chars it was workin fine then wat could be the differences

[Ankur]

Both can do the string concatenation, while + can also be used to add numeric values.
Just to eliminate confusion, try to use "&" when concatenating two strings.

thanks for the reply

to add a note :

In case of "+"
if both are numeric then it will add
if both are string then it will concatenate
if numeric +string then type mismatch

In case of "&"
if both are numeric then it will concatenate
if both are string then it will concatenate
if numeric +string then also concatenate
HERE ALL ARE Cases have concatenation
