## String.prototype.toString
-This is a stub. Help our community expand it.
+The `toString()` method returns a primitive string representing the given String object.
-This quick style guide will help ensure your pull request gets accepted.
+**Example**
+```js
+var x = new String("hi");
+console.log(x); // String {"hi"}
+console.log(typeof x); // object
+console.log(x.toString()); // hi
+console.log(typeof x.toString()); // string
+```
-
+*Note*: for String objects, `toString()` and `valueOf()` return the same thing.
