How do i print escape characters as characters?

Question

I\'m trying to print escape characters as characters or strings using this code:

while((c = fgetc(fp))!= EOF)
{
    if(c == \'\\0\')
    {
        printf(\"

Escape the slashes (use " \\a") so they won't get interpreted specially. Also you might want to use a lookup table or a switch at least.

switch (c) {
case '\0':
    printf("   \\0");
    break;
case '\a':
    printf("   \\a");
    break;
/* And so on. */
}
