Escape double quote character in XML

Question

Is there an escape character for a double quote in xml? I want to write a tag like:

<parameter name="Quote = " "> 

but if I put ", then that means string has ended. I need something like this (c++):

printf("Quote = \" "); 

Is there a character to write before the double quote to escape it?

Here are the common characters which need to be escaped in XML, starting with double quotes:

1. double quotes (") are escaped to "
2. ampersand (&) is escaped to &
3. single quotes (') are escaped to '
4. less than (<) is escaped to <
5. greater than (>) is escaped to >
