How can I print out "AB\nCD" on the console without going to a new line?

Question

I want to print these things on the console

AB\nCD
AB\tCD
AB\bCD

You can print literal ```\n``` using ```\\n```. etc. – khelwood Feb 12 '19 at 10:16 — khelwood, Feb 12 '19 at 10:16

Escape the backslash:

System.out.println("AB\\nCD");
System.out.println("AB\\tCD");
System.out.println("AB\\bCD");

Testing:

public class Test {
     public static void main(String []args){
        System.out.println("AB\\nCD");
        System.out.println("AB\\tCD");
        System.out.println("AB\\bCD");
     }
}

Output:

$javac Test.java
$java -Xmx128M -Xms16M Test
AB\nCD
AB\tCD
AB\bCD
