Question

How can you represent special characters using escape sequences in C++?

Answer 1

Escape sequences are combinations of the backslash character () followed by another character, used to represent special characters or sequences in C++. For example, \n represents a newline, \t represents a tab, and \\ represents a backslash.

Example code:

// Example of using escape sequences
#include <iostream>
using namespace std;

int main() {
    cout << "This is a tab: \t" << "This is a newline: \n";
    cout << "This is a backslash: \\" << endl;
    return 0;
}
