@ string

what the result of the following strings:
@""""
@""","

I think:
""
",

Am I right?


Thank you

yes, you got

Code:

---

"  which is codable also as string s= "\"";
and
", which si codable aslo as string s2="\",";

---

Cimperiali,
so @"""" is "" or "

Thank you for your help

Normally (without using the @ symbol), when you type in ", it ends the string - so, to prevent this, you must use an escape sequence \" wherever you want " to appear as a part of the string.

Now, @ denotes verbatim strings, which ignore escape sequences and line breaks (useful for paths, for example). However, typing " still ends the string literal, and you can't use \" anymore, so a different approach is used - whenever you need " as a part of your string, you type in "".

So, @"""" is actually ".

This is something you can easily test yourself; just write a simple program that prints out a string variable, and then experiment a bit.

Code:

---

// in Main()
string test = @"""";    // change this string literal, then run again
Console.WriteLine(test);
