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:

Escape Sequence	Meaning
\a	Alarm or Beep
\b	Backspace
\f	Form Feed
\n	New Line
\r	Carriage Return
\t	Tab (Horizontal)
\v	Vertical Tab
\\	Backslash
\’	Single Quote
\”	Double Quote
\?	Question Mark
\nnn	octal number
\xhh	hexadecimal number
\0	Null

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!”
