    String 被 修饰符 final 修饰,是无法被继承的,不可变类
    String 实现 Serializable 接口,可以被序列化
    String 实现 Comparable 接口,可以用于比较大小
    String 实现 CharSequence 接口,表示一直有序字符序列,实现了通用的字符序列方法
    String 是一个字符序列,内部数据结构其实是一个字符数组,所有的操作方法都是围绕这个字符数组的操作。
    String 中频繁使用到了 System 类的 arraycopy 方法,目的是拷贝字符数组

    String 内部本质就是操作字符数组 value[]

    因为本质就是操作字符数组,内部用到了大量的Arrays.copyOf,以及System.arraycopy方法
