Displaying string that contains '\t'

Question

I have a string like

string info = "C:\tempFile" but when I am displaying it's getting displayed like this C:empFile. I think its tab delimiter (\t) problem, but I don't know how to fix it.

Answer 1

It's just because \ is a special character. You need to escape it !

Two ways to solve it :

string info = "C:\\tempFile.txt" ; // Means actually C:\tempFile.txt

or

string info = @"C:\tempFile.txt" ; // @ Means don't take care of every \ in this sequence
