Quiz: A backslash in the output
From the below strings, check those that will have precisely one
backslash \ in the output if you print them.
| 0 | "Level\n\t2" | |
| 0 | "Level\n\nTwo" | |
| 1 | 'Storey\nTwo' | |
| 1 | 'Tab is \t' | |
| 0 | "Using a tab\there" | |
| 1 | "//\\\\" | The output is //\ |
| 1 | '//\\\\' | One backslash escapes the other here: //\. |
| 1 | '\"' | No escaping here, the string appears as is: \". |
Comments
The main thing to look at here is the quotes. They determine the way
the \-prefixed characters are escaped.
