Questions tagged [verbatim-string]

C# supports two forms of string literals: regular string literals and verbatim string literals. A verbatim string literal consists of an @ character followed by a double-quote character, zero or more characters, and a closing double-quote character

In a verbatim string literal, the characters between the delimiters are interpreted verbatim, the only exception being a quote-escape-sequence. In particular, simple escape sequences and hexadecimal and Unicode escape sequences are not processed in verbatim string literals. A verbatim string literal may span multiple lines.
