Initializing C++ string inside a constructor

Hello folks,

I want to initialize a variable type string s inside the class
constructor

My code looks like this

class Simple {

public:
Simple();
string s;
};

The problem I am encountering that I can not initialize s in an
initialization list, because my
value to initialize 's' is generated inside the constructor

Simple::Simple() {
// a string "somevalue" is generated here after some code
// can I do

s("somevalue");
or I will have to do
s= "somevalue";

Please help.

thanks

Nagrik
