Added extra context in the nested string interpolation example #1070

…e the string + operator was not previously introduced

Yeah the tutorial is deliberately not going into depth about operators, because they're largely unsurprising -- except of course for string/path concatenation. Thanks for pointing it out. Instead of prefixing the note, Could you please do that? If not, I'll keep a reminder to finish it up. |

Yes I'd be happy to but won't get to it until Monday. Hope that's ok! |
…e because the string + operator was not previously introduced" This reverts commit 2648f98.
…ngs as operators have no yet been mentioned. link to manual for more operators

I've moved it to a detailed explanation block and added a little more detail. Also linked to manual and the functional libraries section because standard operators and functions are mentioned there. Let me know if this is ok. Thank you! |

Thanks a lot @ellyxir. This prompted me to fix a small discoverability issue in the Nix manual.
I expanded a bit on the explanation.
the string + operator was not previously introduced and it wasn't clear that you can have more than just a variable within ${}
im doing a video series for learning the nix programming language and when i saw this part of the language tutorial, i had a hard time parsing what i was seeing. perhaps this could make it more clear. thank you!
