Adding Newline Characters in a String. Operating systems have special characters denoting the start of a new line. For example, in Linux a new line is denoted by “\n”, also called a Line Feed. In Windows, a new line is denoted using “\r\n”, sometimes called a Carriage Return and Line Feed, or CRLF.
What does \n mean in Java? This means to insert a new line at this specific point in the text. In the below example, "\n" is used inside the print statement, which indicates that the control is passed to the next line. As a result, the text following "\n" will be printed on the next line.
Escape the \ with \
text = "\\n is used for new line";
If you want to actually write the two chars \and n to output, you need to escape the backslash: \\n.
All escape sequences are listed in the documentation: https://docs.oracle.com/javase/tutorial/java/data/characters.html
