Print apostrophe

[Former Member]

Hello,

I want to print an apostrophe in a program. There is a special character that helps to recognise the character immediately after it as printable. Which is that character?

I think you are talking about the escape character & for an apostrophe ('), the escape character is an apostrophe itself 😄
