Is there any way to print back slash in python? we can write a string in three format.
1. ASCII
2. Unicode
3. Raw String
I have tried with all 3 formats but not able to get expected result.
Thanks in Advance
Use double backslash, first one marks the escape character:
print("\\")
First option - Unicode:
print('\u005c')
Second option:
print('\\')

I want to assing a path to a variable a:
a = "D:\misc\testsets\Real"
How can i omit the \t metacharacter without changing the folder name?
Use raw strings:
a = r"D:\misc\testsets\Real"
Try this:
r denotes raw string.
a = r"D:\misc\testsets\Real"

lets say i have a string,
"Hello–World"
how would I convert it to something like this
"Hello\u2013World"
where "\u2013" is the unicode representative of "–"
Use str.encode with unicode_escape:
>>> print(s.encode('unicode_escape'))
b'Hello\\u2013World'
If you want a string (and to a byte string like above):
>>> print(s.encode('unicode_escape').decode())
Hello\u2013World

I use print() function to use like this:print("\")and i get an exception. Tell me how to slove it. Thks
Use \\ instead.
Actually, \ is a special character and you have to escape it.
print("\\") # print a single "\" character
Use:
print("\\")
instead of print("\")

\201 is a character code recognised in Python. What is the best way to ignore this in strings?
s = '\2016'
s = s.replace('\\', '/')
print s #6
If you have a string literal with a backslash in it, you can escape the backslash:
s = '\\2016'
or you can use a "raw" string:
s = r'\2016'

I want to print a string that ends with the \ character, but the problem is it makes the following ") part of the string, so won't work. Is there any way to end a string with \ being considered a regular character?
print("somestuffhere\") and this is still part of that string...
Put another "\" character behind it. This escapes the escape character. Like so:
print("somestuffhere\\")
