Strings
String types are represented by a set of characters enclosed in double quotation marks ("Text string").
To include certain special characters within a String, you must prefix them with a backslash (\).
For example, to include a double quotation mark within a String, you would write
\"
. The backslash is required here to indicate that the String has not yet
ended.
The following special character sequences are accepted within text strings:
-
\n
(new line character) -
\t
(tab character) -
\b
-
\r
(carriage return character) -
\f
(line feed character) -
\'
(single quotation mark) -
\"
(double quotation mark) -
\\
(backslash)
