Common Mistakes

Using # or $ instead of @ for verbatim strings.

Not escaping backslashes in normal strings.

The @ symbol before a string in C# creates a verbatim string literal, which treats backslashes as normal characters.

💡 Hint

Common Mistakes

Using actual newline character instead of \n inside verbatim strings.

Not using @ symbol for verbatim strings.

Verbatim strings use @ and to include a newline character literally, you use \n inside the string.

💡 Hint

Common Mistakes

Using single quotes instead of double quotes inside the raw string.

Not using triple double quotes to start and end the raw string.

Raw string literals start and end with triple double quotes """. Inside, double quotes are written as single double quotes ". Newlines are preserved automatically.
