Also it's very important to note that whenever you see something like
X..""..Y
or
X..''..Y
(with X and Y being ANYTHING) it's a POINTLESS operation written by someone who didn't know what he's doing.

You are concatenating an EMPTY STRING. This changes NOTHING.
so
X..""..Y
is equal to
X..Y

and
X..''..Y
is equal to
X..Y
as well.

In math the equivalent operations to
X..""
would be
X+0
,
X-0
,
X*1
or
X/1
. It's neutral. It doesn't change anything. It only wastes performance. So why do you do it? Don't do it.
