Question

I’m in the middle in studying some code and I encountered this word "Append" and I don’t understand what it does.

Code:

public static void appendData(string data)
    {
        if (isRecording) sb.Append(data + Environment.NewLine);
    }

What does append mean?

Answer 1

The answer from ChrisF is correct as far as StringBuilder.Append is concerned.

In general, the word “Append” means “to add to the end of”. See http://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/append.
