Which string type is particularly efficient in terms of memory usage?

The V_String data type is particularly efficient in terms of memory usage because it is designed to handle variable-length strings. Unlike fixed-length string types, which allocate a predetermined amount of memory regardless of the actual string length, V_String dynamically adjusts to accommodate only the amount of memory required for the specific string being stored. This flexibility reduces unnecessary memory consumption, especially when working with strings of various lengths across a dataset.

Although other string types may be useful for certain applications, they typically require more memory than what is necessary for variable-length strings, leading to inefficiencies, especially in large datasets. Hence, V_String is the ideal choice for scenarios where string lengths can vary widely and memory efficiency is a primary concern.
