C#: Really stupid noob question

[Doughnutnator]

Hi! I want to make a simple think, just write "\" in the console.

 

I try to do that with this:

 

Console.Write("\"); But it doesn't allow me to do that.

 

Any ideas?

 

Thanks and have a nice day

'\' is a special character in strings. To print a backslash you must escape it  with another backslash. Console.Write("\\");

You are not an idiot, you just are new to the language. No one knows everything from the start.
