Question
Write short notes on Escape sequences with examples.
Solution
Escape Sequences:
In Python strings, the backslash “\” is a special character, also called the “escape” character. It is used in representing certain whitespace characters: “\t” is a tab, “\n” is a new line, and “\r” is a carriage return. For example to print the message “It’s raining”, the Python command is >>> print (“It\’s raining”)
It’s raining
Python supports the following escape sequence characters.
| Escape sequence character | Description | Example | Output |
| \\ | Backslash | >>> print("\\test") | \test |
| \' | Single-quote | >>> print("Doesn\'t") | Doesn't |
| \" | Double-quote | >>> print("\"Python\"") | "Python" |
| \n | New line | print("Python","\n","Lang.") | Python Lang.. |
| \t | Tab | print("Python","\t","Lang..") | Python Lang.. |
