Escape Character¶
Escape characters are special characters, that introduce a special meaning, for example when redacting an escape sequence.
Escape characters are often generating a special sequence to escape themselves and allow their literal meaning to be expressed.
In PHP’s strings and HEREDOC, the escape character is the backslash : “".
<?php
echo "<a href="https://www.exakat.io/" />";
?>
