String type

C# uses the string(System.String) type to represent unchangable unicode character list.

To create a simple string we just assign string literal to a string type variable.


using System;

class Sample
{
    public static void Main()
    {
        string str = "java2s.com";
        Console.WriteLine(str);

    }
}

The output:


java2s.com

The following string literal has escaped sequence.

Escape sequence is for non-inputable character, such new line character.


using System;

class Sample
{
    public static void Main()
    {
        string str = "java2s.com \n java2s.com";
        Console.WriteLine(str);


    }
}

The output:


java2s.com 
 java2s.com

Verbatim string


using System;

class Sample
{
    public static void Main()
    {
        string path = @"c:\a\b\c\d.exe";

        Console.WriteLine(path);

    }
}

The output:


c:\a\b\c\d.exe
