C# printing a backslash (\)

In C#, \ is a special character (sign) – that is used for escape sequences like to print a new line – we use \n, to print a tab – we use \t etc.

In this case, if we write \ within the message – it will throw an error "Unrecognized escape sequence".

To print a backslash (\), we have to use a double backslash (\\).
