Escape Characters

Info:

Sometimes you may want to use some character that are considered as the part of a function, operator..etc which you may only want as a string. So in that case, you have to escape the character.

To do so?

You have to use the character \ in Python before the character that you want to escape.

For example:

txt = "We are the so-called \"Vikings\" from the north."
