How to write a statement in an if command in Prime? see ex.
You try to get a product of a number and a string?
2*3=6
2*"3"=?
Hi,
I guess that you need something like this ...

I don't suppose you want string output.
It is possible to add strings for comments to your program, but then you have to add them as separate lines. For an example see: Nested Arrays - shape function
And make sure you assign your calculation to a variable inside the program, otherwise your program might produce unexpected results.
But you could write your expression simpler, without a program (and you don't need assignment then):
Or better still:
I admit, one can argue if this makes the calculation any clearer.
In some respect it does, because it sets the (1-...) expression against 1.
Success!

I guess your goal is simply to add comments to your calculations, right?
Apart from simply placing text regions to the right of your calculations
You sure can add calculation expression with strings
or come up with something like this
but I would strongly advise against doing so!!
Best method is, as already was suggested, to add extra text lines in the program
