How to make javascript ignore escape ( \ ) character? [duplicate]

Question

qAnswersR[90430] = [];
    qAnswersR[90430].push("[math]k: \frac{(x+20)^{2}}{256}+\frac{(y-15)^{2}}{81}=1[/math]");

And I need to get the value into variable, but when I console.log out the array like this:

console.log(qAnswersR[90430]);

I get: [math]k: rac{(x+20)^{2}}{256}+rac{(y-15)^{2}}{81}=1[/math],[math]k: 81(x+20)^{2}+256(y-15)^{2}=20736[/math]

But the escape tag "\" disappears, but I need it there, what should I do?

Answer 1

But the escape tag "\" disappears, but I need it there, what should I do?

You need to escape the backslash, i.e., use \\ instead of just \:

"[math]k: \\frac{(x+20)^{2}}{256}+\\frac{(y-15)^{2}}{81}=1[/math]"
          ^                       ^

Answer 2

Escape the escape character, like \\a.

Answer 3

You can use tagged template literals

var str = (s => s.raw)`[math]k: \frac{(x+20)^{2}}{256}+\frac{(y-15)^{2}}{81}=1[/math]`[0]

The anonymous arrow function will serve as tag and s.raw contains the original input
