A question about string manipulation?

Could someone please explain to me a little about string manipulation. Because when I see stuff like

string:match("/".."Hi"..' (.+)'

I have no idea what is going on. Help is much appreciated. Thanks!

This should answer your question (Already at the string.match part): http://wiki.roblox.com/index.php?title=Global_namespace/String_manipulation&redirect=no#string.match Let me know if this helps. :)
