How can I type "\ t" (what it looks like) in Java?

Question

I want to print a backslash in Java. But whenever I try, it takes it as the \ t operator. Double backslash does not work. How can i do this.

Answer 1

Remove the backslash by adding another, e.g.

System.out.println("This is a tab \t and this is not \\t"); 

If this does not work, maybe something else is wrong in your code - write if this does not help you.

Answer 2

You need to escape "\" with another "\"

 System.out.println("\\t"); 

Answer 3

Double backslash works.

 public static void main(final String[] args) { System.out.println("\\t"); } 

will output \ t

Answer 4

 public static void main(String[] args) { System.out.println("\"\t\""); } 

Answer 5

 System.out.println("\"\\t\""); 

if you need even double quotes :)

Answer 6

To add a tab to java, this process will be the same as c and java

In C: -
printf("This will display the tab example \t After tab");

In Java: -
System.out.println("This will display the tab example \t After tab");

The same will be for a new line
System.out.println("This will display the New Line example \n Next Line");

Answer 7

 System.out.println("\" + "t"); 

this wille print: \t easy!

Answer 8

 System.out.println("\\"+"\\t"); 

Shows: \t
