* [[COBOL]] uses the <code>STRING</code> statement to concatenate string variables.

* [[MATLAB]] and [[Octave programming language|Octave]] use the syntax "<code>[x y]</code>" to concatenate x and y.

* [[Visual Basic]] Versionsand 1[[Visual toBasic 6.NET]] can also use the "<code>+</code>" sign but, thisat the leadsrisk toof ambiguity if a string representing a number and a number is addedare together.

* [[Microsoft Excel]] allows both "<code>&</code>" and the function "<code>=CONCATENATE(X,Y)</code>".

* [[Rust (programming language)|Rust]] has the <code>concat!</code> macro and the <code>format!</code> macro, of which the latter is the most prevalent throughout the documentation and examples.
