how to set a string in netlogo ? how to add charachters to a string in netlogo

i was coding with netlogo 3.1.5 and i wrote the next code and it works (the S was already declared in globals [])

set S ""
ifelse (color = green)
[set S S + "0"][set S S + "1"]

the problem is when i wanted to work in netlogo 6.1.1 i copied and past the same code and it shows me an error which is the following: +expected this input to be a number, but got a string instead

so can you please tell me how to set a string and add other strings in it ?

I wasn't using NetLogo back at v3 but I'm assuming the + is to concatenate. If so, the primitive you want is word. Here's a complete model for demonstration. Note that you need the bracket version if there are more than two inputs.

to testme
  let S "A"
  print S
  set S word S "B"
  print S
  set S (word S 1 2)
  print S
end
