operator==operator!=operator<operator>operator<=operator>= | lexicographically compares two strings (function template)
std::swap(std::basic_string) | specializes the std::swap algorithm (function template)

##### Input/output

operator<<operator>> | performs stream input and output on strings (function template)
getline | read data from an I/O stream into a string (function template)

##### Numeric conversions

stoi stol stoll (C++11)(C++11)(C++11) | converts a string to a signed integer (function)
stoul stoull (C++11)(C++11) | converts a string to an unsigned integer (function)
stof stod stold (C++11)(C++11)(C++11) | converts a string to a floating point value (function)
to_string (C++11) | converts an integral or floating point value to `string` (function)
to_wstring (C++11) | converts an integral or floating point value to `wstring` (function)

### Literals

Defined in inline namespace `std::literals::string_literals`
operator""s (C++14) | Converts a character array literal to `basic_string` (function)
