What is an escape sequence and why would a Java programmer use it to store a character?

What will be an ideal response?


You can store any character-including nonprinting characters such as a backspace or a tab-in a char variable. To store these characters, you can use an escape sequence, which always begins with a backslash followed by a character-the pair represents a single character. You might want to use an escape sequence when you want to produce console output on multiple lines in the command window without using multiple println() methods.
