Difference Between String and Stringbuilder in C#

String
 

 String is immutable, Immutable means if you create string object then you cannot modify it and It always create new object of string type in memory.
 
 Example
 

 string strMyValue = "Hello Visitor";
 // create a new string instance instead of changing the old one
 strMyValue += "How Are";
 strMyValue += "You ??";
 
 Stringbuilder
 

 StringBuilder is mutable, means if create string builder object then you can perform any operation like insert, replace or append without creating new instance for every time.it will update string at one place in memory doesnt create new space in memory.
 
 Example
 

 StringBuilder sbMyValue = new StringBuilder("");
 sbMyValue.Append("Hello Visitor");
 sbMyValue.Append("How Are You ??");
 string strMyValue = sbMyValue.ToString();
