The $ sign in C# strings is called "string interpolation" and it makes combining text + variables WAY cleaner than old-school concatenation.
Instead of:
Debug.Log("Health: " + health + " / " + maxHealth);
You write:
Debug.Log($"Health: {health} / {maxHealth}");
✅ Cleaner code
✅ Easier to read
✅ Built into C# (works in Unity, .NET, everywhere)
💡 Pro tip: You can even put expressions inside the braces:
Debug.Log($"Damage: {baseDamage * critMultiplier}");
