Text functions

Pico proposes a set of native functions to manipulate text:

The functions explode and implode convert text to and from a table with slots containing its individual characters -as text values of length one. The operator + is extended to accept two text values as arguments and serves to join these into one text value. Finally, the size function takes a textual argument and returns the number of characters that it consists of.
