/**
 * concats 2 strings
 *
 * @remarks
 * It takes 2 or more arguments, converts them to strings and concats them.
 *
 * `strConcat(word1, word2, ...)`
 *
 * - `word1` - a string or number
 * - `word2` - a string or number
 *
 * ## Usage
 *
 * - `strConcat('this ', 'is a word')` - returns 'this is a word'
 * - `strConcat(1,2)` - returns '12'
 * - `strConcat(1,"a")` - returns '1a'
 * - `strConcat("a",12, "b", " ", 17)` - returns 'a12b 17'
 *
