so...how do you write out \n?

[vlad61]

seems like to obvious of a thing to be a flaw in the language so i was just wondering how would someone print out "\n" in their program?
the only way i can think of is assigning it to something else that equals that...but im not sure

Escape the '\' like so:

std::cout<<"\\n"; //this will print out \n
