| # Interpolation | |
| String and bytes literals support interpolation. | |
| Any valid CUE expression may be used inside the escaped parentheses. | |
| Interpolation may also be used in multiline string and byte literals. | |
| <!-- CUE editor --> | |
| _interpolation.cue:_ | |
| ``` | |
| "You are \( cost - budget ) dollars over budget!" | |
| cost: 102 | |
| budget: 88 | |
| ``` | |
| <!-- result --> | |
| `$ cue eval interpolation.cue` | |
| ``` | |
| "You are 14 dollars over budget!" | |
| ``` |
