Printing period after putting variable into quotes

Question

The compiler doesn't like me putting the period into quotes after the variable which is in quotes:

(userString = "Bob";)

\""+userString+ "\"" ".";

My desired output is:

"Bob".

My question is how do I get the compiler to print that period after "Bob"? Netbeans gives it an error for some reason.

Answer 1

You use \" for a double quotation character literal, everything else is the same as it would be for a string literal. Hence

String userString = "\"Bob\".";

is what you want.
