The main difference is that, once created, the length and content of a string cannot be changed.

However, you can change both the length and the content of a StringBuilder object.

Another difference is that the string class supports literals ("hello") but StringBuilder does not.

String :-

Strings are immutable means Data value maynot be Changed and

Variable value may be changed.

stringBuilder :-

stringBuilder is use for concatenate more than one string.
it provide function like insert,Append,remove etc.

StringBuilder performs is faster than String.

Hi jon,

StringBuilder is more efficient in cases where there is a large amount of string manipulation. Strings are immutable, so each time it's being operated on, a new instance is created.

Thanks
