Summary

Instruction

Now we need to add last names to our names. How can we join two or more strings? Just use the paste() function:

paste("Leopold", "Bloom")

The paste() function uses a space as a default "glue", so we'll get:

Leopold Bloom

Note that by default the two strings are joined with space ( ).

Exercise

Join two vectors of strings: first_names and last_names.

Observe that the paste() function also works with a vector of strings.
