C# escape characters

Question

e.g.

for (int i = 0; i < speaker.Length; i++) {
    s.WriteLine(speakerAmt[i] + \t + speakerID[i]);
}

I'm trying to get a tab character in-between speakerAmt[i] and speakerID[i]. Do escape characters need to be in " " " " (quotation marks)?

EDIT: Thank you! in less than 50 seconds, I had about 5 answers. I'm impressed!

Answer 1

Do this :

for (int i = 0; i < speaker.Length; i++)
{
    s.WriteLine(speakerAmt[i] + "\t" + speakerID[i]);
}

And It's better to do following

for (int i = 0; i < speaker.Length; i++)
{
    s.WriteLine(string.Format("{0}\t{1}",speakerAmt[i],speakerID[i]);
}
