A string is a sequence of zero or more Unicode characters, wrapped in double quotes, using backslash escapes. A character is represented as a single character string. A string is very much like a C or Java string.
A string is a sequence of Unicode code points wrapped with quotation marks (U+0022). All code points may be placed within the quotation marks except for the code points that must be escaped: quotation mark (U+0022), reverse solidus (U+005C), and the control characters U+0000 to U+001F. There are two-character escape sequence representations of some characters.
\” represents the quotation mark character (U+0022).
\\ represents the reverse solidus character (U+005C).
\/ represents the solidus character (U+002F).
\b represents the backspace character (U+0008).
\f represents the form feed character (U+000C).
\n represents the line feed character (U+000A).
\r represents the carriage return character (U+000D).
\t represents the character tabulation character (U+0009).
