StringBuilder sb = new StringBuilder("1 = ");
sb.Append("One");
sb.Append(Environment.NewLine);
sb.AppendLine("2 = Two");
sb.AppendLine("3 = Three");
Displays:

1 = One
2 = Two
3 = Three

StringBuilder can be used instead of String and it provides most of the methods of String class. Since strings are immutable (they cannot be changed) so even when you change a single character in string the whole string gets recreated. Therefore if you need to do many string manipulations you should use StringBuilder class instead for performance reasons.
