The escape sequence in C represents nongraphic characters (nongraphic characters are those characters that cannot be typed directly from the keyboard, for instance, backspace, tabs, carriage return, etc). An escape sequence is represented by a backslash(\) followed by one or more characters. Escape sequences are beneficial to programmers who want to format the output.

List of Escape Sequence in C:

Example:

#include <stdio.h>

int main() {
    // Write C code here
    printf("Hello world\nCoderzpy\tC language");
    printf("\"Have a great day!\"");
    return 0;
}

Output:

Hello world
Coderzpy	C language
“Have a great day!”
