Braided line is the best!!
Braided line is much better then the cheap, crappy line that is supplied with a trimmer. The supplied line is much cheaper, but you can not edge or cut around fences without the line snapping. Braided line is awesome depending on the thickness you use. If you are planning to have a perfect job trimming your lawn I would recommend a gas trimmer, you can pick a cheap gas weed whacker for about $70, and then upgraded to a braided string. The braided string cost about $10 depending on the thickness and size of spool. Braided string is worth the cost though!!
Yes the star, or braided line, while more expensive, is superior to any other line currently available, though the quality of the specific line will vary depending on manufacturer.
The reason for it's superiority include the fact that a round, an oval, or even a square line, (square line, though hard to find, is available), has a lower tensile strength than the braided line. this is due to the design of the string.
To keep the answer a little more simple, what type of edge cuts a steak most effectively, a round one, or one that is pointed? Along with this, the braided line has bulk, (size, or diameter), and multiple points where the sharp edge(s) make contact, whereas the oval line only has two.
Yes it does.
it is not a line segment
Yes, it has multiple.
yes
All regular polygons do.
I use .155" for my push-style trimmer (Echo Bearcat). I'd like something thicker, but haven't yet found anything.

You can expect to pay about $5 for replacement line for a Poulan Pro trimmer.
Yes it can, but the line does not last as long. My experience has taught me that the smaller the line the shorter the lifespan.

A line trimmer, also known as a string trimmer, is used to trim grass or weeds. The piece of equipment also goes by the name of a weed eater, or weed whacker.
Locate the trimmer head at the shaft. Remove debris in the head. Cut a 14-inch piece of the trimmer line and fold it. Place the spool against the spindle. Feed the ends of the line through the eyelets. Push the spool down and pull the trimmer line tight with your hands. Tighten the spool.
