Why? What is the actual input you have
and the output you require?

It depends on why you ever had vectors,
they use much more resources than arrays.

If you want to end up with 20 elements in
a new data vector or array, converting them
to strings in the meantime is a terribly bad idea.

A better way is to create a single array/vector
as big as both, then simply loop through
each and add the elements to the final data
vector/array.

_However_

You need to direct your question over to..
