How can I print "\t" (as it looks) in Java?

Question

I want to print backslash t in Java. But whenever I try, it actualy takes it as \t operator. Double backslash didn't work. How can I do that.

Answer 1

Escape the backslash by adding another, for example

System.out.println("This is a tab \t and this is not \\t");

If this doesn't work, there might be something else wrong in your code - please post it if this doesn't help you.
