\ is a special character (sign) In C#. It is used for escape sequences(break out) such as to print a new line – we use \n, to print a tab – we use \t. We have to use a double backslash (\\) to print a backslash (\).
If we write \ within the message – it throws an error “Unrecognized escape sequence”.
Examples:
Input : \\ Geeksfor\\Geeks Output : \ Geeksfor\Geeks Input : Clean\\Environment Output: Clean\Environment
Below is the implementation of the above approach:
Example 1:
C#
// C# program to print backslash (\) using System;
using System.IO;
using System.Text;
namespace geeks {
class GFG {
// Main Method
static void Main( string [] args)
{
// to print "\"
Console.WriteLine( "\\" );
// to print "\" between string
Console.WriteLine( "Geeksfor\\Geeks" );
}
} } |
Output:
\ Geeksfor\Geeks
Example 2:
C#
// C# program to print backslash (\) using System;
using System.Text;
namespace geeks {
class GFG {
// Main Method
static void Main( string [] args)
{
// to print "\" between string
Console.WriteLine( "Green\Clean" );
}
} } |
Error:
Unrecognized escape sequence `\C'
Example 3:
C#
// C# program to print backslash (\) using System;
using System.Text;
namespace geeks {
class GFG {
// Main Method
static void Main( string [] args)
{
// to print "\" between string
Console.WriteLine( "Clean\\Environment" );
// to print "\"n and "\"t
Console.WriteLine( "\\n\\t" );
}
} } |
Output:
Clean\Environment \n\t
