Escape double quotes in a string

Question

Double quotes can be escaped like this:

string test = @\"He said to me, \"\"Hello World\"\". How are you?\";

But this involves adding chara

Answer 1

Please explain your problem. You say:

But this involves adding character " to the string.

What problem is that? You can't type string foo = "Foo"bar"";, because that'll invoke a compile error. As for the adding part, in string size terms that is not true:

@"""".Length == "\"".Length == 1
