/// as the prelude, itself a name taken as a nod to the popular functional language Haskell. This prelude is available

/// (the general category of Container cs and their iteration).

/// \brief ChaiScript representation of std::string. It is an std::string but only some member are exposed to ChaiScript.
/// 
/// Because the ChaiScript string object is an std::string, it is directly convertable to and from std::string
/// using the chaiscript::boxed_cast and chaiscript::var functions.
///
/// With the exception of string::trim, string::rtrim, string::ltrim, all members are direct passthroughs to the
/// std::string of the same name. 
///
/// \note Object and function notations are equivalent in ChaiScript. This means that
///       \c "bob".find("b") and \c find("bob", "b") are exactly the same. Most examples below follow the
///       second formation of the function calls.
