how can i use '@' symbol in my script code in the MVC page (razor engine)

Answer 1

You can escape by use of two ampersat symbols: @@.

var a = "this is a test text with @@ symbol";

As an aside, though I recently learned and think those coming across this question might also find it useful: you can do comments with a combination of ampersat signs and asterisks:

@*this would comment out some code, or just allow for comments in general*@

Answer 2

@@ should work to escape the character
